Common questions in Belsize Park
Is parking a problem for events in Belsize Park?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll plan unloading around it.
What’s the nearest station to Belsize Park for guests?
South Hampstead station, about 0.7 miles west of the centre.
Can you cook at our office?
Courtyards and terraces frequently work, if the building allows it.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
If you need them, yes. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables are available.
Can the team help cook?
Ask us about it when you enquire, and we will see what works.
What paperwork do you have?
Let us know what’s required, and we’ll send what you need.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Corporate paella catering in Belsize Park, cooked live
We plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so even a big team eats quickly. Popular choices include paella lunches, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts, and we are frequently booked for product launches and open days and customer events.
In Belsize Park, work lunches are often short, so we plan for fast service. Tell us about building access and loading. We serve straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it is ready.

Planning the cooking area
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
As a London location, Belsize Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.

The process
The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. For a Christmas party in Belsize Park, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

About the dishes
Vegan and vegetarian pans
Cooked separately with their own stock.
Paella lunches
Paella is a quick, hot lunch for a crowd, with every diet covered.
Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Catering for every guest
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Share the timings for food
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
We adapt if timings change.
Bowl food for standing events.
DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
