Working with your venue
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Where we can cook in East Village
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
As a London location, East Village is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Have water and soft drinks available
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adapt.

Questions from East Village
Could we have live paella in Mabley Green?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Which station should guests use for East Village?
East Village has its own station: Stratford International station.
Can we pay by invoice?
We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.
Do you cater at business parks?
Frequently, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We’ll check with your facilities team.
What do you need at the venue?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
What documents can you provide?
Let us know what’s required, and we’ll send what you need.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.
Prices and what affects them
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Parking and unloading
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- How many guests are eating
Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
