About our paella party catering in Cubitt Town

Mixed groups are easy: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood pan and a vegetable or vegan pan side by side. Children typically love a simple chicken paella. We cook vegetable paella, churros and seafood paella, and we’re frequently booked for retirement and leaving parties and christenings and naming days.

In Cubitt Town, a back-garden party is the usual choice, even if the garden is small. We need a level spot clear of fences and trees, and somewhere to park and unload. A photo of the garden helps. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Organising for someone else?

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.

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.

Common questions in Cubitt Town

What’s the nearest station to Cubitt Town for guests?

The closest is Canary Wharf station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

We are having a ceremony at Christ Church: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.

How many paellas should we have?

Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will help you decide the split.

Will it be noisy or smoky?

Gas cooking means steam and a good smell, not much smoke. Neighbours may well want an invitation.

Can you set up in a small garden?

Many gardens work. We need level ground, clearance and access. Send us a picture.

What space do you need to cook?

Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

How do you work out quantities?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Let us know about any other food. See how much paella per person.

Can you serve drinks?

Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.

Space, weather and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed

As a London location, Cubitt Town is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

It is one of the most popular pans at parties.

What paella party catering costs

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • How many staff you need
  • Your choice of paellas
  • How many courses
  • Timings and hours

Larger events normally cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • The venue or postcode
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff

To get a price, fill in our quote form. Tell us about your party in Cubitt Town, and we’ll suggest paellas and extras to suit.

How the day works

Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. A summer party in Cubitt Town stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. First, we check the date and the space.
  2. You choose your paellas and any extras.
  3. We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
  4. In goes the rice, and guests gather.
  5. We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.

How to prepare

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Planning help

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. 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.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Paella compared with other options

DIY catering saves money but costs you time. With live paella, you’re a guest too. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
