Festival paella catering in North Sheen, made fresh on the day
Crew and volunteer catering can be timed to your schedule, so your team eats well on a long day. Popular choices include chicken and chorizo paella, churros and giant-pan paella, and we are often booked for village fêtes and festivals.
London street parties and fairs in North Sheen need careful planning around road closures and access. Send us the pitch and timings. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once it is ready.

Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in North Sheen? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
Is live paella right for your event?
Not every trader covers vegans. A paella stall can have a vegan pan alongside the rest. Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.

Before you choose a spot
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Trader information and site rules
- Vehicle access before and after the event
As a London location, North Sheen is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

- We confirm menu, pitch needs and documents.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- We cook in full view and serve all event.
