Your questions about corporate paella catering in Goose Green
What’s the nearest station to Goose Green for guests?
The closest is Yalding station, roughly 2.5 miles away.
Is Goose Green too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Do you take everything away?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
How long do you need on site?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you so the paella is ready when you want it.

For planners, venues and organisers
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we will tell you honestly whether live paella will work.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
What affects the price in Goose Green
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- How many guests are eating
- How many courses
- Whether you need crockery
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
