Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

What’s the nearest station to Flackley Ash for guests?
Rye station, about 3 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you cook near the sea around Flackley Ash?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.

Yes. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.

It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance.
