How our festival paella catering works in Broomer's Corner

A paella stall covers several diets at once: separate meat, seafood and vegan pans. That simplifies your food line-up. We are frequently asked to cater village fêtes and summer fairs and school fairs and fundraisers, with seafood paella, chicken and chorizo paella and vegan paella.

At a field event near Broomer's Corner, power and water may be limited; let us know and we’ll plan for it. We serve straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

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 for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

FAQs for Broomer's Corner

Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Is Broomer's Corner close to London?

How many different paellas?

Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will suggest a split based on your guests.

Do you cook inside?

Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Catering for every guest

Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To get it right:

  • Check allergen info is on display
  • Ensure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options

Allergen details are available at the stall, and each pan is labelled.

The process

On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. Evening events in Broomer's Corner have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.

  1. You send us the event, dates and pitch details.
  2. We confirm our menu, pitch needs and documents.
  3. On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
  4. We cook in front of the crowd and serve from the pan all event.
  5. We pack down and leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
