- Trader information and site rules

The process
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. At midsummer, events in North Brixton stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm what we will serve, our pitch needs and any paperwork.
- We arrive at the agreed time to set up the pitch.
- Pans cook in full view and we serve throughout the event.
- At the end, we clear our pitch.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Tell us when you want to eat

How we price festival paella catering
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of paellas
- Guest numbers
- Parking and unloading
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of the space, if you can
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Where the event is
It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.
Should I cook it myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
Common questions in North Brixton
Can you cook in Max Roach Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you run a stall at a school fair in North Brixton?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
Do you cater in North Brixton?
We do. We cook at events in North Brixton and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What do you need at the pitch?

How much paella per person?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.
Is the paella gluten-free?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
