Planners, venues and businesses

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

Should I cook it myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

Choosing a paella caterer

The process

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. After-work summer parties in Godmersham have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, 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. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

How to get a price

Catering for every guest

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form
  • Tell us how long the food break is

The space is left clean and tidy.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

Before you choose a spot

Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:

  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Facilities approval and any site rules
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Godmersham: your questions answered

Which station should guests use for Godmersham?

The closest is Chilham station, roughly 1.8 miles away.

Could we have live paella in Godmersham Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

How do you work out quantities?

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

Can you cook at our office?

Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, subject to the building’s rules.

Is the paella gluten-free?

We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

What paperwork do you have?

Ask facilities for their list and pass it on and we’ll respond.

What about pudding?

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.

Do you do Christmas parties?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. Hot paella in winter is popular.

Why choose live paella in Godmersham?

Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
