What affects the price in Sutton Common
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- How many guests are eating
- Whether you need crockery
- The paellas you choose
- Timings and hours
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers 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 we need at the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
As a London location, Sutton Common is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
