Hedsor: your questions answered
How far is Hedsor from London?
About 26 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station should guests use for Hedsor?
Bourne End station, about 1 mile west of the centre.
Is the paella cooked on site?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, serving it hot from the pan.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Is halal food available?

Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
What if the weather’s bad?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll confirm availability and requirements.

How the day works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. At midsummer, events in Hedsor stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- We check your dates.
- We agree menu and pitch.
- We set up our burners and pans.
- The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Before we arrive
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Name one person we can ask on the day
Getting a price

Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
Our pitch is kept tidy and safe.
Catering for crew and VIP areas.

Is live paella right for your event?
If you want a trader that adds atmosphere, a paella pan delivers. Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
