Why choose live paella in Green Street?
For crew catering, sandwiches are easy but uninspiring. A hot meal keeps crew happy. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

About our festival paella catering in Green Street
Nothing draws a festival crowd like a giant paella. People follow the smell, and service from the pan is fast. We’re frequently asked to cater summer fairs and fêtes and music and food festivals, serving vegan paella, chicken and chorizo paella and churros.
Rural events near Green Street can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food stall is a big help. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, each in a separate pan and clearly labelled.

How we price festival paella catering
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- The length of service
- Guest numbers
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Travel, parking and access
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

- Plan seating near the food area

Questions from Green Street
What’s the nearest station to Green Street for guests?
Crowhurst station, about 0.8 miles north-west of the centre.
Can you cook in Filsham Reedbed?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll check availability.
Do you do desserts?
Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
What do you need at the venue?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send your requirements and we’ll include them with our application.
What do you need at the pitch?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need.
What’s in the pans
Chicken & chorizo paella
Smoky and filling.
Vegan paella
Vegan paella cooked separately.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
