Mexican bar hire for your event in Upminster Bridge
Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: hibiscus agua de jamaica, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re a good alcohol-free choice for everyone. For engagement celebrations and weddings, day or evening, we can serve soft drinks, Mexican beer and margaritas.
In Upminster Bridge, 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. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Step by step
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Winter receptions in Upminster Bridge are dark by about 3:50pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the licensing with you.

- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We pack down when the bar closes.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

- Check how alcohol will be licensed at your venue
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
- Make sure there is water for guests
- Collect allergy details in advance
If timings change, tell us and we will adjust.
Ask us about glassware or cups and we’ll set out the options.
Common questions in Upminster Bridge
What’s the nearest station to Upminster Bridge for guests?
Guests can use Upminster station, about 0.5 miles east of Upminster Bridge.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Laurence: 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.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
It depends on the venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll talk licensing through with you.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
What can we have at the bar?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Yes. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
