Choosing a paella caterer

Common questions in Bosham Hoe

Is Bosham Hoe close to London?

Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

What’s the nearest station to Bosham Hoe for guests?

The closest is Bosham station, roughly 1.9 miles away.

Do you need water?

Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need.

Where do you cater?

We cater across London and the South East, including West Sussex. See all areas.

Will there be enough food?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

How quickly can you serve?

Service from the pan is fast, ideal for peak times.

Catering for every guest

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
  • Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
  • Ask for allergen information at each stall
  • Give traders a single information pack

At the end, we clear the pitch and leave it clean.

What affects the price in Bosham Hoe

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • Parking and unloading

The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Getting an accurate quote

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • The address or venue name
  • A photo of the space, if you can

It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.

Paella compared with other options

For a stall that adds atmosphere, paella is a strong choice. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

What you get with us

  • Served hot, straight from the pan
  • Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
  • A clear, itemised quote
  • Events in Bosham Hoe and across West Sussex

What happens on the day

Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. At midsummer, events in Bosham Hoe stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
  2. You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
  3. Paperwork goes over in good time.
  4. We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
  5. At close, we pack down and tidy up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

Planning help

Organising for someone else?

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

Space, weather and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:

  • Vehicle access to the pitch at set-up and break-down
  • Pitch space for cooking and serving
  • A level pitch on firm ground

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.
