How our paella party catering works in Bray Wick
A paella party means no cooking for you, and no formal dinner either. We set up in the garden or venue and cook as your guests chat. Whether it’s family reunions and summer garden parties, we will put together a menu of mixed paella, chicken and chorizo paella and churros for your guests.

Your questions about paella party catering in Bray Wick
Do you come out to small places like Bray Wick?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
We are having a ceremony at St Michael's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Most children enjoy paella, particularly a simple chicken pan. Let us know numbers and ages.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes, always. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, in front of your guests.
Will there be enough food?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Let us know about any other food. See how much paella per person.
Why choose paella party catering in Bray Wick?
It is the easiest way to feed a party without being stuck in the kitchen, and it is a talking point.
Live paella works for big and small events alike. Common bookings include:
- Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers
- Anniversaries and engagement parties
- Garden parties and summer barbecues
- Retirement celebrations
Nearby historic houses include Dorney Court (1.8 miles east) and St Leonard's Hill (3.4 miles south-east). Grand settings like these often have strict catering rules, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Hog roasts do not suit vegetarians and vegans. Paella covers everyone with separate pans. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: staff, crockery, sides, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
What we need at the venue
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Send a picture of the garden so we can check
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Should I cook it 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 keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
What’s in the pans
Vegetable paella
A proper vegetable paella, not an afterthought.
Churros
Churros are a treat for all ages.
