About our festival paella catering in Osterley
Paella eats well from a bowl with a fork, standing up or sitting on the grass. We cook churros, giant-pan paella and vegan paella, and we’re often booked for community events and open days and village fêtes and summer fairs.
Street parties and school fairs in Osterley are a great fit for a paella stall, once permissions are sorted. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
How the day works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you’re free to enjoy your event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. At midsummer, events in Osterley 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.
