Mexican catering for your event in Brandfold
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. It works well for markets and community events and birthday parties, with tacos, burritos and quesadillas.
For a rural spot like Brandfold, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Why book with us
- Book food, drinks or both
- Allergen-aware menus
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Catering across Kent, including Brandfold

Brandfold questions
Will you travel to a small place like Brandfold?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Which station should guests use for Brandfold?
The closest is Marden station, roughly 3.4 miles away.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do you cater in Brandfold?
We do. We serve at events in Brandfold and across Kent. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run 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 check the licensing with you.
Can I do a taco night myself?
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, and handles allergen information for you.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
