Paella party catering in Blewbury, made fresh on the day
Paella is made for relaxed parties: it’s served from the pan and shared, so nobody needs a formal seating plan. Popular choices include vegetable paella, seafood paella and tapas, and typical bookings are for baby celebrations and family get-togethers.
In a small place like Blewbury, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will plan the set-up. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

The menu, dish by dish
Vegetable paella
A proper vegetable paella, not an afterthought, with peppers, beans and artichokes.
Chicken & chorizo paella
Smoky, satisfying and popular with children, and a good choice for guests who do not eat seafood.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

Blewbury is about 3 miles south of Didcot, in Oxfordshire.

After a christening at a church like Church of St Michael, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends. Nearby historic houses include Brightwell Manor (4.1 miles north-east).

Blewbury: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Blewbury?
The closest is Didcot Parkway station, roughly 2.9 miles away.
Is Blewbury close to London?
About 49 miles from central London.
Can you do sangria?
Yes, sangria. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Will it be noisy or smoky?
Less smoke than a barbecue, more smell, and it is a good smell. A friendly note to the neighbours helps.
Do you cook it at the event?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, serving it hot from the pan.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Have enough chairs for most guests
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Warn the neighbours
- Make sure children stay back from the pans
When service is finished, we pack down quietly, so the party carries on.
Sangria sets the mood.
What happens on the day
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your party. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. At midsummer, it’s light in Blewbury until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- You tell us the date, address, guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu and confirm a quote.
- On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
- Guests gather round as it cooks, nibbling tapas if you’ve booked them.
- We serve it hot from the pan, then pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
