Festival paella catering for your event in Potter's Green
A paella stall covers several diets at once: separate meat, seafood and vegan pans. That makes life easier for organisers. Typical bookings include race days and sports events and summer fairs and fêtes, with giant-pan paella, chicken and chorizo paella and churros.
Near Potter's Green, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a paella stall is a welcome sight. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

What happens on the day
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. Summer events in Potter's Green have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We send the documents the event asks for.
- We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
