Festival paella catering for North Weston events

Festival paella catering for your event in North Weston

A paella stall covers several diets at once: separate meat, seafood and vegan pans. That makes life easier for organisers. On the menu are giant-pan paella, chicken and chorizo paella and vegan paella, and typical bookings are for sports clubs and race days and food and music festivals.

Near North Weston, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food stall is a big help. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served the moment it’s ready.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we will agree where we cook. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Pitch space for cooking and serving
  • Spacing from tents and other structures
  • Flat, firm ground

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.

On the menu in North Weston

  • Chicken & chorizo paella
  • Tapas
  • Churros
  • Seafood paella
  • Giant paella pans
  • Vegan paella

For event organisers in North Weston

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in North Weston? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.

Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Is live paella right for your event?

Hot-cabinet food lacks theatre. A giant pan cooking in view sells itself. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.

Why North Weston hosts choose us

  • Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
  • We cover North Weston and the whole of Oxfordshire

North Weston events: pitches and permissions

North Weston is about 2 miles west of Thame, in Oxfordshire. Across the OX9 area, we will come to your venue or garden. North Weston is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we cook. You can also see our page for Oxford, about 9 miles away.

School fairs, for a school like Lord Williams's School, are a natural fit for a paella stall. For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene, a paella stall adds a hot meal to the cakes and tombola. Events in and around the Chilterns National Landscape, within about 8 miles of North Weston, frequently have rules about vehicles, ground and waste; we will follow the site’s requirements.

How to compare caterers

How the day works

The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. Evening events in North Weston have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

  1. Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
  2. You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
  3. We send the documents the event asks for.
  4. We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
  5. At close, we pack down and tidy up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
