Hammill Park: your questions answered
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Do you come out to small places like Hammill Park?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. A simple chicken paella is normally popular with children. Include children in your numbers.
What paperwork do you have?
Send us the venue’s requirements and we’ll respond.
Can you cater a winter event?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. December dates go fast.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
What if the weather’s bad?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.

How the day works
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. December events in Hammill Park are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.

- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
