A Mexican drinks bar works well for receptions and parties in Custom House. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Custom House: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Matthew's Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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’ll check the access.
Is parking a problem for events in Custom House?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Always. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
That depends on your venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We talk it through with you.
Drinks planning tips
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Check how alcohol will be licensed at your venue
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
- Have plenty of water available
- Agree bar timings in advance
We serve responsibly: under-18s are not served alcohol, and nor is anyone who has had too much.
Tell us what glassware you need and we will set out the options.
Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Organising a club, school or community event in Custom House? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
