The process

Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. For a Christmas party in Farlington, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

How to compare caterers

Farlington: your questions answered

Is Farlington close to London?

About 61 miles from central London.

Can you cook near the sea around Farlington?

Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.

How much paella per person?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Can you cater for children?

Yes. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.

Can we pay by invoice?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how we work.

What happens if it rains?

We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.

Do you cook inside?

Typically 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.

Catering for every guest

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
  • Tell us how long the food break is

Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception.

Bar staff and sangria on request.

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
