About our festival paella catering in Clay Hill

A paella stall covers several diets at once: meat, seafood and vegan pans side by side. That simplifies your food line-up. On the menu are chicken and chorizo paella, vegan paella and churros, and typical bookings are for village fêtes and summer fairs and open days and community events.

In Clay Hill, a paella pan suits street parties and school fairs, as long as the road closure or site permission is in place. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Where we can cook in Clay Hill

If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • Flat, firm ground
  • Vehicle access to the pitch at set-up and break-down
  • Your arrangements for power, water and waste

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

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

What we offer

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

What happens on the day

We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. Summer events in Clay Hill have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
  2. We reply with our menu, prices for visitors and requirements.
  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.

Preparing for the day

  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
