How our paella catering works in Brackenbury Village
You can keep it simple or build a full menu: just paella, or paella with tapas, desserts and drinks. We will suggest what suits your event. On the menu are mixed paella, vegetable paella and chicken and chorizo paella, and we’re frequently booked for weddings and evening receptions and office lunches and staff parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Brackenbury Village, the cooking spot is normally a back garden, a courtyard or a venue’s terrace. Parking and loading are the main things to plan, so let us know about parking permits or a driveway. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

Should I cook it myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. Around midsummer it stays light in Brackenbury Village until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting where we cook.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu and an itemised quote.
- We arrive early, set up the cooking area and start the stock.
- Your guests watch the paella cook, with any tapas served first.
- It is served straight from the pan, and we pack down afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
