Why live cooking beats a buffet
Not every trader covers vegans. A paella stall can have a vegan pan alongside the rest. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.
Why book with us
- Paella cooked from scratch on site
- Hot food served quickly from the pan
- A clear, itemised quote
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts

What affects the price in Stoke Poges
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- How long we’re needed on site
- Distance and access to the venue
- Waiting and bar staff
The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Step by step
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving. Summer events in Stoke Poges have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

DIY paella versus live catering
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
