Questions from Allhallows
Is Allhallows too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Allhallows close to London?
About 32 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes, always. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, where your guests can watch.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
Yes. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
What documents can you provide?
Send us the venue’s requirements.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will suggest a split based on your guests.

How the day works
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. After-work summer parties in Allhallows have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Leave space around the cooking area
How to get a price
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
