Nuneham Courtenay questions

Do you come out to small places like Nuneham Courtenay?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Nuneham Courtenay from London?

Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Will there be enough food?

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

Do you do Christmas parties?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

Can you bring crockery?

If you need them, yes. Proper crockery or quality disposables can be added to your booking.

Is the paella cooked on site?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.

How much is live paella catering?

The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

How it works

The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. After-work summer parties in Nuneham Courtenay have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Plan cover in case of rain

  • The number of people
  • Travel, parking and access
  • Your choice of paellas
  • Starters, canapés and desserts

Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you can choose exactly what you need.

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • What the venue already provides

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

What we need at the venue

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

  • Approval from your facilities team or building manager
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.
