We bring the pans and burners and work to your site rules, from arrival times to waste. Typical bookings include open days and VIP and hospitality areas, serving seafood paella, giant-pan paella and chicken and chorizo paella.
At a fête or field event near Beauworth, a paella stall brings a hot, filling meal to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and access. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.
What happens on the day
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. At midsummer, events in Beauworth stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We confirm what we’ll serve, our pitch needs and any paperwork.
- We arrive at the agreed time to set up the pitch.
- We cook in front of the crowd and serve from the pan all event.
- At the end, we clear our pitch.
How to prepare
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot meal keeps crew happy. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Diets, allergies and planning
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Provide seating near the food
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
Allergen details are available at the stall, and each pan is labelled.
Tapas and churros can be added to a stall menu.
Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Pitch space for cooking and serving
- Flat, firm ground
