FAQs for Broad Street
Is Broad Street close to London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Nicholas?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote.
What do you need at the venue?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a photo.
Is my garden big enough?
Many gardens work. We need level ground, clearance and access. A photo helps.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
Can you supply crockery?
If you need them. Crockery or disposables are available.
About our paella party catering in Broad Street
Mixed groups are easy: meat, seafood and vegetable or vegan pans side by side. Children generally love a simple chicken paella. For anniversary celebrations and naming days and christenings, we will put together a menu of tapas, seafood paella and mixed paella.
In a small place like Broad Street, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the set-up. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated.

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Have bins ready
- Give separate numbers for children
- Plan seats for most guests
We keep the cooking area tidy and safe, with space kept clear around the burners.
Churros and chocolate go down well with all ages.
How it works
Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. Sunset in Broad Street is about 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June. If the party runs past dark, we will need light where we cook and serve.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose your paellas and any extras.
- We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
- In goes the rice, and guests gather.
- We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Give us a contact for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
