Paella party catering for your party in Climping
The smell of paella cooking is the best party invitation. People drift over with a drink to watch it cook. We cook seafood paella, tapas and mixed paella, and typical bookings are for retirement and leaving parties and celebrations of life.
In a small place like Climping, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will handle the rest. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.

For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Planning for every diet
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Warn the neighbours
- Have enough chairs for most guests
We arrive before your guests to set up.
Plates, cutlery and waiting staff can be added.

How the day works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan when you are ready to eat. At midsummer, it’s light in Climping until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

Common questions in Climping
Can you cook near the sea around Climping?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Is Climping close to London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
What does paella party catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
Can you cook in my back garden?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level spot clear of fences and trees. Send us a photo of the space.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Of course. Children normally love a plain chicken paella. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
