Bushwood Area of Leytonstone events: pitches and permissions
Bushwood Area of Leytonstone is about 1 mile east of Leyton, in Greater London.

School fairs, for a school like George Tomlinson Primary School, are a natural fit for a paella stall. If your event is in Leyton Jubilee Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission; we’ll supply our paperwork.

Bushwood Area of Leytonstone questions
Could we have live paella in Leyton Jubilee Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Is parking a problem for events in Bushwood Area of Leytonstone?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you do desserts?
Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.
Is there a vegan option?
Yes. There is a vegan pan next to the others.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Do you cover Bushwood Area of Leytonstone?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Bushwood Area of Leytonstone is within our area and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, use our quote form.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is served at its best. Evening events in Bushwood Area of Leytonstone have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
