Do you do vegan paella?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.

Why choose live paella in Lewisham?

Buffet food sits out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.

Why Lewisham hosts choose us

  • Hot food served quickly from the pan
  • Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • Starters and desserts to complete the menu

See Our prices page Or Our guide to catering costs.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
