Tongwell: your questions answered

Do you come out to small places like Tongwell?

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

How far is Tongwell from London?

About 48 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you cook indoors?

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 far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.

Can you cater a winter event?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. Hot paella in winter is popular.

Can you supply plates?

We can. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.

How does payment work for businesses?

We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.

The menu, dish by dish

Vegan and vegetarian pans

Separate pans with plant-based stock, so everyone eats well.

Canapé tapas

Canapé tapas suit client events.

The process

We work to your timings. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is still served fresh. In Tongwell, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Choose a level spot for 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 keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

Working with your venue

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Tongwell? Paella is quick to serve to a crowd and suits most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.

Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Events we cater in Tongwell

It’s fast to serve to a crowd, which matters when time is tight.
