Questions from Cramhurst

Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

What’s the nearest station to Cramhurst for guests?

The closest is Milford (Surrey) station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?

It is ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.

What space do you need to cook?

Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

Do you offer halal options?

Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.

How much is live paella catering?

We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a price.

Do you cook at offices in central London?

Courtyards and terraces frequently work, subject to the building’s rules.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Step by step

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. December events in Cramhurst are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Before we arrive

  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Planning help

Live paella or other catering?

A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.
