About our festival paella catering in Haslingbourne
A paella stall covers several diets at once: meat, seafood and vegan pans side by side. That simplifies your food line-up. On the menu are seafood paella, churros and vegan paella, and we are regularly asked to cater music and food festivals and farmers’ and Christmas markets.
Near Haslingbourne, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a paella stall is a welcome sight. You will know exactly what’s included before you book: the menu, the staff and any extras.

Haslingbourne: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Haslingbourne?
The closest is Pulborough station, roughly 3.8 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Haslingbourne?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is halal food available?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.
What areas do you cover?

Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
