How our festival paella catering works in Kingswood
Because paella is cooked in big batches, it handles lunchtime rushes well. Portions are served in seconds. Popular choices include chicken and chorizo paella, churros and giant-pan paella, and typical bookings are for country shows and village fêtes and summer fairs.
At a field event near Kingswood, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Live paella or other catering?
Not every trader covers vegans. A paella stall can have a vegan pan alongside the rest. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Why us?
- Real theatre, not just catering
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan

Questions from Kingswood
Do you come out to small places like Kingswood?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you run a stall at a school fair in Kingswood?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Can you serve drinks?
We can make sangria, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes. Crew, volunteer and VIP catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
How many different paellas?
Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will suggest a split based on your guests.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

What else we do in Kingswood
How the day works
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand.

Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and documents.
- We set up at the agreed time.
- We cook in front of the crowd and serve from the pan all event.
- We clear the pitch and leave it clean.
