After-work summer parties in Carshalton have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

Planning the cooking area
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
As a London location, Carshalton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Could we have live paella in Carshalton Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
What about parking in Carshalton?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Have water and soft drinks available
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Get facilities approval early
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
We arrive at the agreed time and follow your site rules.
Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Guest numbers
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Your choice of paellas
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Your date and when you want to eat
