Tackley: your questions answered

Is Tackley close to London?

About 58 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Tackley?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

How many different paellas?

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

Do you cook at offices in central London?

Courtyards and terraces frequently work, if the building allows it.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.

Who clears up?

Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.

Can the team help cook?

Many teams enjoy watching and learning how paella is made. Tell us what you’d like.

Step by step

Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. For a Christmas party in Tackley, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:30pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
