About our paella party catering in Coneyhurst
Most gardens can host a paella party, as long as there is a flat spot clear of fences and branches. Not sure? Send a picture. Typical bookings include wakes and memorial gatherings and baby celebrations, with mixed paella, seafood paella and churros.
Country parties near Coneyhurst suit live paella: cooked outside, served from the pan. Plan a gazebo in case of rain. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

About the dishes
Churros
Fried, sugared and dipped in chocolate, a sweet finish.
Vegetable paella
A proper vegetable paella, not an afterthought.
Step by step
Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. Sunset in Coneyhurst is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Planning for every diet
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To get it right:
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Collect dietary needs with your invites
- Give separate numbers for children
- Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
When service is finished, we pack down quietly, leaving you to carry on celebrating.
Churros with chocolate are a hit with children and adults.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
What we need at the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Level ground for the pans and burners
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.
