Dietary needs and planning tips
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Think about shade and seating
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Make sure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
The cooking area stays tidy.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
How the day works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. For a Christmas party in Godden Green, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Leave space around the cooking area
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

FAQs for Godden Green
Could we have live paella in Knole Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Which station should guests use for Godden Green?
The closest is Bat & Ball station, roughly 1.8 miles away.

Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
