Festival paella catering in Enfield
How the day works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. For an evening event in Enfield, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- 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.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Preparing for the day
- Leave space around the cooking area
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

Catering for every guest
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
We keep our pitch tidy and safe.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
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.

Your questions about festival paella catering in Enfield
Can you cook in Enfield Town Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

Enfield Town station, in Enfield itself.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
Is halal food available?
Yes, we do. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Do you cater for young children?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
We can. Crew, volunteer and VIP catering is available, with or without a public stall.

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.

What we need at the venue
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:
- A pitch away from tents and structures
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- A level pitch on firm ground
As a London location, Enfield is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
