Stepney: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Stepney?
Guests can use Whitechapel station, which is right in Stepney.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Stepney Green Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
How much does Mexican bar hire cost in Stepney?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
You will need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.
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 the arrangements with your quote.
Will someone run the bar?
Bar staff are part of the service.
Do you serve responsibly?
Our bar staff serve responsibly: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, with water and alcohol-free choices on hand.
Mexican bar hire in Stepney, from our food truck or trailer
Aguas frescas are light, fruity drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re a good alcohol-free choice for everyone. For wedding receptions and evening parties and winter celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of aguas frescas, soft drinks and alcohol-free drinks for your guests.
Around Stepney, a courtyard or forecourt the truck or trailer can reach is ideal. Tell us about narrow streets, permit bays or a parking suspension. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

How it works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. At midsummer, it is light in Stepney until about 9:20pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is 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.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Parking and the route in
- What’s on the menu
- How long we are needed on site
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- The address or venue name
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Expected numbers
- A picture of where we’d park
