How our paella party catering works in Bexon
A paella party works in most gardens, if there’s a level spot away from fences and trees. Send us a photo if you’re unsure. On the menu are chicken and chorizo paella, churros and tapas, and we’re often booked for street and neighbourhood parties and anniversary celebrations.
Country parties near Bexon suit live paella: cooked in the open and served hot. Plan a gazebo in case of rain. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- A picture of the garden helps us check the space
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before you book.

How we price paella party catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many staff you need
- How many courses
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 will suggest a menu.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Which courses you have in mind
- Roughly how many adults and children
- The venue or postcode
- Diets and allergies you know about
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, use our quote form.
What happens on the day

- Guests watch the paella cook.
- We serve, then clear our area.
