Festival paella catering for Glympton events
Festival paella catering in Glympton, cooked live
A paella stall covers several diets at once: meat, seafood and vegan pans side by side. That makes life easier for organisers. We cook chicken and chorizo paella, vegan paella and churros, and we are regularly asked to cater village fêtes and summer fairs and seasonal markets.
At a fête or field event near Glympton, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and access. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

Organising for someone else?
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Room for our cooking and serving area
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- A level pitch on firm ground
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why book with us
- Catering across Oxfordshire, including Glympton
- Sangria and bar staff available
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- A clear, itemised quote
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Book crew catering in advance
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
At the end, we clear the pitch and leave it clean.
