Mexican bar hire in Somers Town, served fresh
Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. For wedding drinks receptions and licensed festivals, we’ll put together a menu of Mexican beer, margaritas and agua de jamaica and more.
In Somers Town, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. Parking and loading need planning, as with any London event, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. If alcohol is being served, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Planning a drinks bar in Somers Town

Couples leaving a church such as St Mary's Church could be greeted with margaritas and aguas frescas at the reception. A gathering in Lewis Cubitt Park? Check the park’s rules first, as alcohol and vehicles typically need permission.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Somers Town questions
We are having a ceremony at St Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What about parking in Somers Town?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Yes. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free, along with soft drinks.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will talk licensing through with you. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A summer drinks reception in Somers Town has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We check the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Ask the venue about power and water
