About our Mexican bar hire in West Barnes
A Mexican drinks bar brings margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas to your event, with bar staff to serve your guests. It works on its own or alongside our food. We serve Mexican beer, soft drinks and agua de jamaica, which works well for wedding drinks receptions and end-of-year and Christmas parties.
In West Barnes, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. If alcohol is being served, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. Winter receptions in West Barnes are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- 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
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Room for a queue
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
In West Barnes, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Popular choices
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Mexican beer
- Soft drinks
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Horchata
- Margaritas
Common questions in West Barnes
We’re having a ceremony at Holy Cross: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
What’s the nearest station to West Barnes for guests?
Guests can use Motspur Park station, which is right in West Barnes.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
