About our paella party catering in Beam Park

Planning a party in Beam Park
Beam Park is about 1 mile south of Dagenham, in Greater London. Whether your party is in the middle of Beam Park or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price. Beam Park is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cook. Our events stretch from Beam Park to London (about 11 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Rainham Hall (1 mile south-east) and Eastbury Manor House (3.1 miles west). If you’re hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on outside caterers first. After a christening at a church like Church of St Helen and St Giles, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends.
This part of Greater London takes in RM13, RM10 and RM9, so your party can be anywhere in it. We can cater a party on streets such as New Road, Lowen Road and Manser Road or the roads around them. Being close to the A1306, Beam Park is easy for us to reach with everything for your party. If your venue is just outside Beam Park, we also cover Hornchurch Marshes (1 mile south-west), South Hornchurch (1 mile north-east), Dagenham Green (1 mile west), Dagenham (1 mile north) and Rainham (1 mile east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (11 miles west), City of Westminster (14 miles west), Marylebone (14 miles west), St Pancras (12 miles west), Shoreditch (11 miles west) and Walthamstow (9 miles north-west).
Other landmarks nearby include River (0.6 miles west) and Erith Museum (3 miles south). Open spaces near Beam Park include Dagenham Village Churchyard.
- Local schools include Brook Sixth Form and Academy (under half a mile south)
- Nearby, you’ll find The Bell pub (1 mile east)
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
The menu, dish by dish
Chicken & chorizo paella
A smoky favourite with children and adults, and a good choice for guests who do not eat seafood.
Vegetable paella
A vegetable pan means vegetarians eat well.

Is live paella right for your party?
A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Paella covers everyone with separate pans. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

How it works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. At midsummer, it is light in Beam Park until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with your date, address, numbers and any diets.
- We suggest paellas and extras and send a quote.
- On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
- Your guests watch the paella cook, with tapas first if you’ve chosen them.
- It’s served from the pan, and we clear our area afterwards.
How to prepare
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
