Winchfield: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Winchfield?
Winchfield has its own station: Winchfield station.
How far is Winchfield from London?
About 38 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.
What do you need at the venue?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.
Can you bring crockery?
We can. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.

Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
Is the paella cooked on site?
Yes. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, in front of your guests.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
