FAQs for New Charlton
What about parking in New Charlton?
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.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Catherine Labouré?
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’ll check the access.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Responsible serving comes first: alcohol-free drinks for under-18s, with water and alcohol-free choices on hand.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.

Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. Popular choices include Mexican beer, horchata and agua de jamaica, which works well for work celebrations and milestone birthdays.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Tips for a smooth bar
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Plan transport home for guests
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
- Give the council notice in good time for a Temporary Event Notice
- Collect allergy details in advance
We adapt if the timings shift.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.
