Paella party catering in Crews Hill, cooked live

Planning a London party in Crews Hill? Live paella keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, on a patio or at a venue. Tell us about parking permits. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served the moment it is ready.

Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:
- Have enough chairs for most guests
- Keep a clear zone around the cooking area
- Collect dietary needs with your invites
- Tell us how many children are coming
We are set up before guests arrive, so the cooking is under way as people arrive.
Add bread, salad and lemon.
The process
We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Guests normally gather round to watch as the paella takes shape. A summer party in Crews Hill stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send us your date, address and numbers.
- You get a menu and a quote.
- We arrive before your guests and set up.
- Guests watch the paella cook.
- We serve from the pan and pack down.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about parking, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Questions from Crews Hill
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St John the Baptist: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking normally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Is parking a problem for events in Crews Hill?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.
Do you come to Crews Hill?
We do. We cook at events in Crews Hill and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
What about pudding?
We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
Does it make a lot of smoke?
Paella is cooked over gas, so there is cooking steam and smell but little smoke. Neighbours may well want an invitation.
Live paella or other catering?
