Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
We arrive on time and follow your site rules, including sign-in and parking.
Crockery and staff can be added.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our cooking area, and cook and serve without fuss. In Alfold Bars, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
How to get a price
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

Do you cater at business parks?
Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will confirm with facilities.

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.

Is the paella gluten-free?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
