About our paella party catering in Eastbury
It’s easy to cater for a mix of guests: meat, seafood and vegetable or vegan pans side by side. A plain chicken paella keeps children happy. We cook tapas, mixed paella and chicken and chorizo paella, and typical bookings are for summer garden parties and wakes and memorial gatherings.
Planning a London party in Eastbury? Live paella keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, on a patio or at a venue. Mention any parking permits. We serve straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it’s ready.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Before you choose a spot
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- A picture of the garden helps us check the space
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
Eastbury is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
Popular choices
- Seafood paella
- Vegetable paella
- Paella Valenciana

What paella party catering costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Whether you need crockery
- How long we are needed on site
- The paellas you choose
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- Expected numbers
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Anything your venue supplies
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can use our quote form.
What’s in the pans
Seafood paella
The seafood pan is frequently the showpiece, and is best served with lemon.
Tapas
A few tapas set the scene while they watch the pans.
Is live paella right for your party?
For a party that feels a little special without being formal, live paella is hard to beat. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why book with us
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
- Fast service from the pan
- No hidden extras in your quote
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
