Event catering near Ley Hill
Ley Hill is about 2 miles east of Chesham, in Buckinghamshire. Whether your event is in the middle of Ley Hill or on the outskirts, festival paella catering works the same way: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price. Ley Hill is one of 263 places in Buckinghamshire we cover. We cook right across the region, from Ley Hill to Milton Keynes (about 24 miles away).
School fairs, for a school like Ley Hill School, are a natural fit for a paella stall. For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as St George's Church, a paella stall adds a hot meal to the cakes and tombola. Events in and around the Chilterns National Landscape, within about 6 miles of Ley Hill, frequently have rules about vehicles, ground and waste; we work to the site rules.

FAQs for Ley Hill
Which station should guests use for Ley Hill?
The closest is Chalfont & Latimer station, roughly 2.7 miles away.
Is Ley Hill too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll let you know if we’re available.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Ley Hill.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. A paella pan stands out. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
- A quote that spells everything out
- Sangria and bar staff available
- Served hot, straight from the pan
