Denton questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Northfleet Urban Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Which station should guests use for Denton?
Guests can use Gravesend station, about 1.2 miles north-west of Denton.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer 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.
Which areas do you serve?

Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Flat, firm ground
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
