What does festival paella catering cost?
We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan for them.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Diets, allergies and planning
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Check how many portions traders can serve
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
We keep our pitch tidy and safe.
Churros and tapas can join the menu.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Access for unloading at set-up
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- A level pitch on firm ground
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we offer
- Vegan paella
- Chicken & chorizo paella
- Giant paella pans
- Seafood paella

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Most stalls cook to order. Paella is batch-cooked and served fast, keeping queues short. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why Brewer Street hosts choose us
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Real theatre, not just catering

The process
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. At midsummer, events in Brewer Street stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- We check your dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- We set up our burners and pans.
- Pans are cooking as gates open.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Give us your final numbers and diets
