Organising for someone else?

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we will agree where we cook. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Vehicle access to the pitch at set-up and break-down
  • A pitch big enough for the pans, burners and serving table
  • Flat, firm ground

Coombe Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

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

What we offer

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

Step by step

The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. Summer events in Coombe Hill have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. Send us your event details and pitch information.
  2. We confirm menu, pitch needs and documents.
  3. We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
  4. We cook and serve throughout.
  5. We clear and leave the pitch clean.

Before we arrive

  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Tell us where to park and unload

Can vegans eat at your stall?

Yes. The vegan pan is cooked separately.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.

How much is live paella catering?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

Why choose live paella in Coombe Hill?

Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot paella keeps crew going. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
