Paella catering for Littlefield Green events
What paella catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Distance and access to the venue
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert

About our paella catering in Littlefield Green
The cooking is half the fun. People drift over as the sofrito sizzles and the rice turns gold, and the aroma does the rest. We are often asked to cater engagement and anniversary parties and big birthdays, serving paella Valenciana, seafood paella and vegan paella.
In a small place like Littlefield Green, events are generally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes and long drives are no problem if we know about them, and a firm spot near where we park makes set-up easier. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
