For event organisers in Lower Stoke

Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Planning the cooking area

The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:

  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Parking close enough to carry equipment

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. In Lower Stoke, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Planning help

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Paella compared with other options

Sandwich platters are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

Why book with us

  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • Catering across Medway, including Lower Stoke
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
