How our Mexican street food works in Brookside
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders are served quickly from the hatch. For hospitality and crew areas and community events and open days, we will put together a menu of vegan tacos, burritos and burrito bowls and more.
A fête near Brookside might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
- The number of people
- Your choice of food and drinks
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Brookside: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Brookside?
Guests can use Ascot station, about 1.3 miles south of Brookside.
Can you trade at a school fair in Brookside?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
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. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.

What we need at the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Clear information on power, water and waste
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.

How it works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. By late September, it is dark in Brookside at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
