How our paella party catering works in Brook Green
A paella party works in most gardens, as long as there’s a flat spot clear of fences and branches. Not sure? Send a photo. We are often asked to cater celebrations of life and garden parties and summer barbecues, serving churros, seafood paella and tapas.
Planning a London party in Brook Green? Live paella means no cooking for you, and works in gardens, on patios and at hired venues. Mention any parking permits. Timings are planned around your event, so the paella is ready when you want to eat.

How we price paella party catering
Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Guest numbers
- Distance and access to the venue
- Timings and hours
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- The courses you’d like
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What the venue already provides
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, use our quote form.
Step by step
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you’re free to enjoy your party. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. A summer party in Brook Green stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- We check your date and the space.
- You choose your paellas and any extras.
- The burners go on and the sofrito starts.
- The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
- It is served hot, and we clear away afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
How to get a price

Common questions in Brook Green
Is parking a problem for events in Brook Green?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.
Which station should guests use for Brook Green?
Kensington Olympia station, about 0.5 miles east of the centre.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three covers most guests. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
What space do you need to cook?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Will there be enough food?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
Can you provide dessert?
We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.
Can you supply plates?
We can. Let us know and we will add it to the quote.
DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Why choose live paella in Brook Green?
If you want special but not formal, live paella is hard to beat. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.
What you get with us
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
Planners, venues and businesses
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Brook Green? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
