What affects the price in Stoke Newington

We’ll give you a clear, itemised quote. What affects it most:

  • Timings and hours
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • The number of people
  • Whether you need crockery

Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Anything your venue supplies
  • The date and time of the event
  • Which courses you have in mind
  • Expected numbers

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, courses and extras. To send your details, use our quote form.

Step by step

Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. For a Christmas party in Stoke Newington, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day

DIY paella versus live catering

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

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. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Is live paella right for your work event?

Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

Why us?

  • Starters and desserts to complete the menu
  • Hot food served quickly from the pan
  • Catering across Greater London, including Stoke Newington
  • Crockery and waiting staff if you need them

Questions from Stoke Newington

What’s the nearest station to Stoke Newington for guests?

Stoke Newington station, about 0.5 miles east of the centre.

What about parking in Stoke Newington?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.

Do you work in winter?

Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. December dates go fast.

What if the weather’s bad?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.

Should we have more than one paella?

Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.

Can you invoice the company?

We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.

How much is live paella catering?

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

Can you cook at our office?

12 questions to ask before booking

Space, weather and the venue

Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • The venue’s permission for live cooking
  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls

Stoke Newington is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

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

On the menu in Stoke Newington

We adapt if timings change.
