Common questions in Sparsholt
Is Sparsholt too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
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 work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve drinks?
Yes, sangria. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
Will there be enough food?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.
What paperwork do you have?
Send us the venue’s requirements.
How many different paellas?
Normally two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
Do you cook inside?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
How the day works
We get there well before serving, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. In Sparsholt, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- 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
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Leave space around the cooking area

DIY paella versus live catering
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
