Should I cook it myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
What affects the price in Two Mile Ash
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The paellas you choose

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.

What else we do in Two Mile Ash
The process
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is still served fresh. At midsummer, events in Two Mile Ash stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- 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.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Check the venue allows live cooking
