Questions from Leafield
Which station should guests use for Leafield?
Ascott-Under-Wychwood station, about 2.5 miles north-west of the centre.
Is Leafield too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How much paella per person?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Can you do a team-building activity?
Ask us about it when you enquire, and we’ll discuss what’s possible at your venue.
How long do you need on site?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Is the paella gluten-free?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

Should I cook it myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Catering for every guest
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Ask staff about diets in advance
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Have water and soft drinks available
The cooking area stays tidy, and clear it away afterwards.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
What we need at the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
