Common questions in Ley Hill

Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?

How far is Ley Hill from London?

Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, Buckinghamshire included. See all areas.

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through it.

How far ahead should we book?

Can you cater for children?

Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.

Can staff get involved?

Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.

How it works

Here’s how the day generally runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it is served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. For a Christmas party in Ley Hill, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

How to prepare

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Ensure we can park close by to unload

Paella compared with other options

Sandwich platters are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

Should I cook it myself?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
