FAQs for Drayton Beauchamp

How far is Drayton Beauchamp from London?

Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you cook at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

How much does festival paella catering cost in Drayton Beauchamp?

The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

Can you trade at our festival or fair?

Send us the details, and we will reply with our availability and what we need.

What paperwork do you provide?

Send your requirements and we’ll include them with our application.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

Do you provide drinks?

Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.

How our festival paella catering works in Drayton Beauchamp

Near Drayton Beauchamp, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food stall is a big help. You’ll know exactly what’s included before booking: the menu, the staff and any extras, with no surprises on the day.

Dishes our guests love

Chicken & chorizo paella

Popular with families.

Vegan paella

A proper vegan main, in its own pan.

For planners, venues and organisers

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free options. A vegan paella pan sits alongside the others. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.

Why us?

  • Every diet catered for, pan by pan
  • Everything cooked fresh at your event
  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts

Dietary needs and planning tips

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Agree waste arrangements with traders
  • Ask about peak-time capacity
  • Ask for allergen information at each stall
  • Make sure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options

We arrive at the agreed time and set up our pitch.
