Hindhead questions

Is Hindhead too small for live paella?

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

What’s the nearest station to Hindhead for guests?

Haslemere station, about 1.9 miles south-east of the centre.

Do you do desserts?

We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Is it really cooked live?

Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, serving it hot from the pan.

Can you cook halal paella?

We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.

Can the team help cook?

Teams often enjoy watching and asking questions. Tell us what you’d like.

Do you take everything away?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

Working with your venue

Space, weather and the venue

Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:

  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think.
