Your questions about corporate paella catering in Windmill Hill
What’s the nearest station to Windmill Hill for guests?
The closest is Gravesend station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
How far is Windmill Hill from London?
Roughly 21 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cook indoors?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
Can you invoice the company?
Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how we work.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.
What do you need at the venue?
Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Do you cook it at the event?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
That’s one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we’ll plan for them.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
