Paella party catering in Burcott, made fresh on the day

It’s easy to cater for a mix of guests: meat, seafood and vegetable or vegan pans side by side. Children normally love a simple chicken paella. We cook mixed paella, churros and seafood paella, and typical bookings are for garden parties and summer barbecues and birthday parties.

A country party near Burcott is perfect for paella: cooked in the open and served hot. Have a gazebo ready in case of rain. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and a queue moves quickly.

Questions from Burcott

Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Is Burcott too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Can you supply plates?

On request. Proper crockery or good-quality disposables are available.

Do you do desserts?

We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

Do you cater for young children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

Where do you cater?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Burcott.

How it works

The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. Sunset in Burcott is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June. If the party runs past dark, we’ll need light where we cook and serve.

  1. Send us your date, address and numbers.
  2. We suggest paellas and extras and send a quote.
  3. We arrive before your guests and set up.
  4. Guests watch the paella cook.
  5. We serve from the pan and pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
