Festival paella catering in Mursley, made fresh on the day
Because paella is cooked in big batches, it handles lunchtime rushes well. Portions are served in seconds. We cook vegan paella, seafood paella and giant-pan paella, and we are frequently booked for feeding crew and volunteers and christmas and farmers’ markets.
For a village fête or field event near Mursley, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once it is ready.

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Mursley? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
What festival paella catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Whether you need crockery
- Distance and access to the venue
- The number of people
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.

- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Where the event is
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
Space, weather and the venue

- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Your trader pack and site rules
- Flat, firm ground
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about festival paella catering in Mursley
Do you come out to small places like Mursley?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Mursley from London?
About 44 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Do you come to Mursley?
Yes, we do. We cook at events in Mursley and across Milton Keynes. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How much paella per person?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
Yes. A vegan paella pan sits alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Can we book you as a trader?
Send us the details, and we will reply with our availability and what we need.
How it works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. At midsummer, events in Mursley stay light until about 9:25pm, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We send the documents the event asks for.
- We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Choose a level spot for the cooking area
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you will get a menu idea and a price. To get started, use our quote form.

Live paella or other catering?
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 your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
