Westhumble questions
How far is Westhumble from London?
About 20 miles from central London.
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
What documents can you provide?
Let us know what’s required, and we will send what you need.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
How does payment work for businesses?
We will explain booking and payment when you enquire.
How much paella per person?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
That’s one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Distance and access to the venue

Live paella or other catering?
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs a lot of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Larger events generally cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
