Festival paella catering in Rotherwick, cooked live
We can trade as a stall or cook for crew, volunteers and VIP areas. Popular choices include seafood paella, churros and giant-pan paella, and typical bookings are for summer fairs and fêtes and open days and community events.
Rural events near Rotherwick can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food stall is a big help. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
