Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

A closer look at the menu

Bowl food

Paella in bowls for standing receptions and networking events.

Vegan and vegetarian pans

Cooked separately with their own stock.

How it works

Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. In Woolbridge, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook

Woolbridge: your questions answered

How far is Woolbridge from London?

Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London.

Is Woolbridge too small for live paella?

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

What about pudding?

We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

Can you cook in the rain?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.

Is the paella gluten-free?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.

Is it really cooked live?

It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.

Do you cater for young children?

Yes. A simple chicken paella is typically popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.

For event organisers in Woolbridge

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Live paella or other catering?

Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella just needs a suitable spot. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
