Live paella or other catering?
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before booking.
What you get with us
- Drinks service on request
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Give us diet totals and allergy details
We serve at the agreed time, lunchtime or evening.
Bowl food for standing events.
DIY paella versus live catering
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Old Chiswick: your questions answered
Can you cook in Turnham Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Which station should guests use for Old Chiswick?
Chiswick station, about 0.8 miles south-west of the centre.
What does corporate paella catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a price.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
How much paella per person?
We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.
Do you cater for young children?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan for them.
Do you work in winter?
With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
Occasions we cook for in Old Chiswick
No kitchen required, so courtyards and outdoor spaces work.
Live paella works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:
- Client and customer events

Nearby historic houses include Hogarth's House (under half a mile west) and Chiswick House (under half a mile south-west). For a client event at a historic house or estate, ask early about catering rules and where cooking is allowed.

Working with your venue

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Step by step
When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. For a Christmas party in Old Chiswick, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We clear our area and leave it clean.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Space, weather and the venue
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
As a London location, Old Chiswick is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
