Diets, allergies and planning

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:

  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Have water and soft drinks available
  • Tell us how long the food break is

We serve at the agreed time, whether that’s a lunch break or an evening party.

Crockery and staff can be added.

How the day works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Your guests are welcome to watch while it cooks. In Lane End, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking

Should I cook it myself?

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

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. 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.
