Questions from Tattenhoe

Bletchley station, about 2.3 miles east of the centre.
Do you trade at school fairs around Tattenhoe?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
How many different paellas?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will suggest a split based on your guests.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.
How much is live paella catering?
We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Do you cater in Tattenhoe?
We do. Tattenhoe is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
How it works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. Summer events in Tattenhoe have daylight until about 9:25pm 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.
- We reply with our menu, prices for visitors and requirements.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Check the venue allows live cooking

What affects the price in Tattenhoe
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many courses
- Parking and unloading
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.

- A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The date and rough timings
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
