Cranleigh questions
Could we have live paella in Sayer's Croft LNR?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Do you do desserts?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
What happens if it rains?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
If you need them, yes. Proper crockery or quality disposables can be added to your booking.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Courtyards and terraces frequently work, subject to the building’s rules.
Do you cater for young children?
Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
