Questions from Golders Green

Which station should guests use for Golders Green?

The closest is Cricklewood station, roughly 1.2 miles away.

Could we have live paella in Childs Hill Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

Should we have more than one paella?

Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.

Do you do desserts?

Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.

Do you cater for young children?

Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.

Do you cook it at the event?

Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.

Do you cook inside?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • The length of service
  • Whether you need crockery

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.

Getting an accurate quote

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • What the venue already provides
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • The address or venue name
  • Diets and allergies you know about

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can use our quote form.

DIY paella versus live catering

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:

  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
