Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Trader information and site rules
  • Clearance from tents and gazebos
  • A level pitch on firm ground

As a London location, Brondesbury Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

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

What we offer

  • Tapas
  • Giant paella pans
  • Seafood paella
  • Churros
  • Chicken & chorizo paella
  • Vegan paella

Should I cook it myself?

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

How we price festival paella catering

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • How many staff you need
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Timings and hours
  • The number of people

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Details that help

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Which courses you have in mind
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Diets and allergies you know about

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. To send your details, use our quote form.

Brondesbury Park: your questions answered

Which station should guests use for Brondesbury Park?

Brondesbury Park has its own station: Wembley Central station.

Could we have live paella in Preston Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

Do you cook it at the event?

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

Can you do gluten-free paella?

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.

How quickly can you serve?

Paella is cooked in big batches and served from the pan, so service is quick.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Can you feed our volunteers?

Yes, at set times to suit your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.

Our caterer checklist

What happens on the day

On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. Summer events in Brondesbury Park have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. It starts with your event details and pitch information.
  2. We confirm our menu, pitch needs and documents.
  3. On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
  4. The paella cooks in full view, and we serve from the pan through the event.
  5. We pack down and leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
