Egerton Forstal questions
Is Egerton Forstal too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Egerton Forstal close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London.
Can you send documents to our venue?
Ask facilities for their list and pass it on and we will respond.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
It is ideal for that. Share the timings and we will plan for them.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Can you cook indoors?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
Do you do Christmas parties?
Yes, if there is a covered, ventilated spot. Book early for December.
Step by step
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks.

DIY paella versus live catering
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
What affects the price in Egerton Forstal
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Parking and unloading
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and time of the event
- Which courses you have in mind
- Where the event is
- What the venue already provides
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
