FAQs for Beansheaf Farm
How far is Beansheaf Farm from London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Could we have live paella in Calcot Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
It’s ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.
Can you cater a winter event?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
Can you invoice the company?
Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how we work.
Can you bring crockery?
If you need them, yes. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.
Do you do desserts?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.
Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
