What else we do in Lower Denford
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Prices and what affects them
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Waiting and bar staff
- The number of people
- Timings and hours
- How many courses
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your date and when you want to eat
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
- Anything your venue supplies
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
