FAQs for Elvendon
Is Elvendon close to London?
About 43 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Elvendon for guests?
Goring & Streatley station, about 1.4 miles west of the centre.
Who clears up?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
What about pudding?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.
Can you cook indoors?
Generally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
Do you cater for young children?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella stands out. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
Why book with us
- A clear, itemised quote
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
