Is live paella right for your event?
For a stall that adds atmosphere, a paella pan delivers. 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 will suggest a menu.

Your questions about festival paella catering in Nyton
What about events near the coast?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Is Nyton close to London?
About 52 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you do crew catering?
We can. Crew, volunteer and VIP catering is available, with or without a public stall.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
How much paella per person?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.
Do you take everything away?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

DIY paella versus live catering
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

How the day works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. For an evening event in Nyton, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
