About our paella party catering in Beacon Hill
It’s easy to cater for a mix of guests: meat, seafood and vegetable or vegan pans side by side. A plain chicken paella keeps children happy. We are often asked to cater engagement and anniversary parties and neighbourhood celebrations, serving tapas, churros and seafood paella.

For event organisers in Beacon Hill
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
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.
How it works
Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. A summer party in Beacon Hill stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
