How our Mexican bar hire works in Thames View Estate

Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We check the licensing with you before the day. It works well for garden parties and fairs and community events, serving agua de jamaica, aguas frescas and horchata.

In Thames View Estate, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. Parking and loading need planning, as with any London event. If alcohol is being served, we will talk licensing through with you and your venue. You will know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Thames View Estate

Which station is closest to Thames View Estate?

The closest is Barking Riverside station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

Could you serve in Mayesbrook Park?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.

How much does the drinks bar cost?

We quote for each event, depending on guests, drinks and timings. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.

How many guests can you serve?

Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.

How much is a food truck for an event?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

What if the weather’s bad?

We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.

Do you do a taco bar?

Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.

Comparing your options

A generic bar does the job, but margaritas and aguas frescas give the bar character. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

A Mexican drinks bar in Thames View Estate: local tips

Thames View Estate is about 1 mile south-east of Barking, in Greater London. Whether your event is in the middle of Thames View Estate or on the outskirts, Mexican bar hire works the same way: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Thames View Estate is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 9 miles away.

If the service is at a church such as Christ Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. If you have your heart set on Mayesbrook Park, ask the people who run it about vehicles, alcohol and licensing first.

We cover events in every part of IG11 and RM9 and the streets around it. Whether your event is on Creek Road, Saxham Road and Minter Road or anywhere nearby, we will plan where to park and serve. Nearby, we also cater events in Barking Riverside (1 mile south-east), Castle Green (1 mile north-east), Dagenham Dock (2 miles south-east), Dagenham Green (2 miles east) and Thamesmead (2 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in London (9 miles west), City of Westminster (11 miles west), Marylebone (11 miles west), Kensington (13 miles west), St Pancras (10 miles west) and Shoreditch (8 miles west).

Nearby you’ll also find Gallions Reach Shopping Park (1.7 miles south-west) and Barking Community Hospital (0.8 miles north-west). Not far away are Ripple Nature Reserve.

Before you choose a spot

Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:

  • A flat, firm spot for the bar
  • A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
  • A clear area in front of the bar

London streets around Thames View Estate can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Step by step

We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A summer drinks reception in Thames View Estate has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk through licensing with you.
  3. You choose the drinks with us.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can ask on the day
