About 54 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Speen?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What space do you need to cook?
Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
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 soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
What we need at 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:
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
