Lindfield questions
Could we have live paella in Eastern Road Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you do desserts?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

What does corporate paella catering cost?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

Can you cook halal paella?
We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it’s cooked separately.
Planning the cooking area

- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
