What else we do in Grove Hill
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
The process
We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Guests typically gather round to watch as the paella takes shape. For a Christmas party in Grove Hill, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Leave space around the cooking area
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Check the venue allows live cooking

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Grove Hill
Is Grove Hill close to London?

Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans.
Is the paella cooked on site?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
