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

The process
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. In December, the light goes in New Eltham at about 3:55pm, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:20pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We go through the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Ask the venue about power and water
Getting a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
