Common questions in Aaron's Hill

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Which station should guests use for Aaron's Hill?
Godalming station, about 0.6 miles east of the centre.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Is my garden big enough?
Most gardens are fine. We need a level spot, clearance from anything flammable and reasonable access. A photo helps.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Typically, if there is outdoor space to cook. Check the venue allows live cooking.
Planning the cooking area
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- A quick photo of the spot helps us plan
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
