Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:

George Green questions
Do you trade at school fairs around George Green?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Is George Green too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you cook it at the event?
It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.
Who clears up?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Is the paella gluten-free?
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.
How much paella per person?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. A paella pan stands out. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many courses
- Travel, parking and access
- Waiting and bar staff
Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.
