Brook: venues, access and local tips
Brook is about 4 miles east of Ashford, in Kent. Events in Brook are planned around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. Brook is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican catering. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Brook to Canterbury (10 miles away).
If people are travelling in by rail, Wye station is about 2 miles away. For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Mary, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 2 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Brook. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.

How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. In Brook, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- When you’re done, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Common questions in Brook
Do you cater in villages like Brook?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Brook for guests?
Guests can use Wye station, about 2 miles north-west of Brook.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can we add a bar?
Yes. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will check the licensing with you.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.
What Mexican catering costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
- Food, drinks or both
- How many staff you need
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- Your menu ideas
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Roughly how many adults and children
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space will not work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac

- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
