Common questions in Castle Hill
Is Castle Hill close to London?
About 32 miles from central London.
Can you cook at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Can you supply plates?
If you need them, yes. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables are available.
Can you do sangria?
We can make sangria, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
How much is live paella catering?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What do you need at the venue?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella just needs a suitable spot. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.
