North Moreton questions
Can you cook at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like North Moreton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
How long does the paella take?
We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.
Do you cater for young children?
Of course. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
How much paella per person?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
What we offer

DIY paella versus live catering
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Dishes our guests love
Vegan and vegetarian pans
A real main for vegetarians and vegans, not an afterthought.
Canapé tapas
Bite-sized tapas carried round by staff.

What affects the price in North Moreton
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- The paellas you choose
- Timings and hours
- Travel, parking and access
- Waiting and bar staff
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Your date and when you want to eat
- The address or venue name
- Anything your venue supplies
- A photo of the space, if you can
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.
Canapés for drinks receptions.
How it works
