Empshott questions

Which station should guests use for Empshott?

Liss station, about 2.7 miles south-east of the centre.

Do you come out to small places like Empshott?

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

Will there be enough food?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Can you feed everyone quickly?

Yes. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.

Can you invoice the company?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

How the day works

Your timings come first. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. In Empshott, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

How to prepare

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
