About our Mexican bar hire in Charlton
Alcohol at an event needs the right 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 end-of-year and Christmas parties and birthday parties, serving horchata, alcohol-free drinks and soft drinks.
A Mexican drinks bar works well for receptions and parties in Charlton. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We will talk licensing through with you and your venue. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Before you choose a spot
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Room for a queue
- Access to unload close to the bar spot
- Licensing checked with you before the day
In Charlton, 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Mexican beer
- Soft drinks
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Horchata
- Margaritas

FAQs for Charlton
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Catherine Labouré?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Charlton Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Can we have the bar on its own?
Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Our Mexican catering can be added too.

Drinks receptions around Charlton
Charlton is about 2 miles west of Plumstead, in Greater London. Whether your event is in the middle of Charlton or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Charlton is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we can bring Mexican bar hire. We cater right across the region, from Charlton to London (6 miles away).
Historic buildings near Charlton often have strict rules for outside caterers, so ask early if that’s your venue. Once the ceremony at a church like St Catherine Labouré is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue.
For Mexican bar hire in SE7 and SE18, we plan around your venue and the route in and timings. Your event could be at a home on Floyd Road, Guild Road and Priolo Road or the roads around them. Neighbouring places where we cater events include New Charlton (1 mile north-west), Westcombe Park (1 mile west), Woolwich (1 mile east), Vanbrugh Park Estate (1 mile south-west) and Kidbrooke (2 miles south). We also cater in nearby towns such as London (6 miles west), City of Westminster (8 miles west), Marylebone (8 miles west), Kensington (10 miles west), St Pancras (7 miles west) and Shoreditch (6 miles north-west).

- Pubs nearby include The Victoria pub (within half a mile north)
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How it works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. A summer drinks reception in Charlton has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- We tidy up at the end.
Before we arrive
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Name one person we can ask on the day
Ask for a quote
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
