Brede: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St George: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Is Brede close to London?
It’s about 49 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata.
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.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
- Access to unload close to the bar spot
- Permission from the venue or landowner
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Popular choices
- Soft drinks
- Margaritas
- Horchata
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Mexican beer
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
