DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

FAQs for Upper Woolhampton
Do you come out to small places like Upper Woolhampton?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Upper Woolhampton for guests?
The closest is Midgham station, roughly 1 mile away.
How long do you need on site?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can you cook at our office?
Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, subject to the building’s rules.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
Yes. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes, we do. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
Space, weather and the venue
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How it works
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. For a Christmas party in Upper Woolhampton, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
