Palestine questions
What’s the nearest station to Palestine for guests?
Grateley station, in Palestine itself.
Do you come out to small places like Palestine?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables can be added to your booking.
Do you need water?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can you serve drinks?
Sangria can be added, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
Can you cook indoors?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
What happens if it rains?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Festival paella catering for your event in Palestine
One paella stall covers many diets: meat, seafood and vegan pans side by side. That makes life easier for organisers. For christmas and farmers’ markets and music and food festivals, we can cook chicken and chorizo paella, churros and vegan paella and more.
Rural events near Palestine can be a long way from food outlets, so a paella stall is a welcome sight. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
Planning the cooking area
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:
- Flat, firm ground
- A pitch away from tents and structures
- Vehicle access before and after the event
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Churros
- Seafood paella
- Tapas
- Vegan paella
- Giant paella pans
- Chicken & chorizo paella

Running an event in Palestine
Palestine is in Hampshire. Events in Palestine are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and live cooking on the day. Palestine is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we cook. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 20 miles away.
If you are organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as Grateley Primary School, a paella stall is a crowd-pleaser. For visitors coming by rail, Grateley station is in Palestine itself.
We cook at events all over SP11. Local streets include Station Road, Streetway Road and Campbell Close; an event at home on any of them works well with live paella. Close by, we cover events in Grateley (1 mile north-east), Quarley (2 miles north), Over Wallop (2 miles south-east), Fox (2 miles north-east) and Kentsboro (3 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Winchester (15 miles south-east), Andover (7 miles north-east), Romsey (14 miles south-east), Hyde (15 miles south-east), Tidworth (5 miles north) and Weeke (14 miles south-east).
The countryside around Palestine includes Quarley Hill and Winterbourne Downs RSPB reserve.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
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. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Burger stalls are common. Paella adds something different. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Everything is confirmed in writing.

- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan

What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Anything your venue supplies
- The date and time of the event
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it’s served at its best. At midsummer, events in Palestine stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and paperwork.
- We set up on time.
- We cook in full view and serve all event.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
