Paella catering for Coxhill Green events
Paella catering in Coxhill Green, made fresh on the day
Live paella works almost anywhere with a level, ventilated spot: a garden, marquee, barn, courtyard or field in and around Coxhill Green. On the menu are seafood paella, mixed paella and vegan paella, and we are regularly asked to cater birthday celebrations and retirement celebrations.
Somewhere like Coxhill Green, a field or garden is often the perfect setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated.
Space, weather and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.
Popular choices
- Chicken & chorizo paella
- Mixed paella
- Vegetable paella
- Black rice (arroz negro)
- Seafood paella
- Vegan paella
- Paella Valenciana
Planning for every diet
With a little notice, every diet is easy. We suggest:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Count adults and children separately
- Make sure each pan is labelled
- Put allergy details in writing
You shouldn’t have to worry about the food on the day. We arrive in good time, set up, cook and serve, and keep in touch with you or your venue about timings.
Sangria and bar staff can be added to serve drinks you provide.

The process
We get there well before serving, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. In Coxhill Green, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting where we cook.
- Start with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with paellas to suit your guests, plus any extras.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and the cooking spot.
- On the day we cook live, timed around your event.
- Guests are served from the pan, and our area is cleared afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Leave space around the cooking area

How we price paella catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How long we’re needed on site
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How many guests are eating
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Expected numbers
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the space, if you can

For event organisers in Coxhill Green
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
