Questions from Black Bourton
Is Black Bourton too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Is Black Bourton close to London?
About 66 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
We can. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can staff get involved?
Teams frequently enjoy watching and asking questions. Tell us what you’d like.
Is it really cooked live?
It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Can you serve drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Organising for someone else?
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Black Bourton? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To get it right:
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Get facilities approval early
We leave the space as we found it.
Canapés for drinks receptions.
What we need at the venue
Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We need:
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How the day works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you’re free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks.

- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
