Why choose live paella in Easton?
Food that sits in a hot cabinet isn’t much to look at. A giant pan cooking in view sells itself. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, sides, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Why book with us
- Paella cooked from scratch on site
- Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
- Food that becomes part of the entertainment
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts

Space, weather and the venue
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:
- Pitch space for cooking and serving
- Flat, firm ground
- Vehicle access before and after the event
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

DIY paella versus live catering
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

How the day works
When we arrive, 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. Summer events in Easton have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We send the documents the event asks for.
- We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Check the venue allows live cooking
