About the dishes
Seafood paella
A seafood pan with prawns and mussels, for the fish lovers.
Tapas
Patatas bravas, tortilla, croquetas and olives to start.
How it works
The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. For a late-May party in Eynsham, sunset is around 9:00pm; at midsummer it is about 9:30pm. If the party runs past dark, we will need light where we cook and serve.
- We check your date and the space.
- You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
- We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
- The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
- It is served hot, and we clear away afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Share the running order, including any speeches

FAQs for Eynsham
How far is Eynsham from London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Leonard?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking typically happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you supply crockery?
We can. Tell us what you need and we’ll include it in the quote.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one in your enquiry.
How far in advance should we book?
Early is best, but ask even if it’s soon. We will check availability right away.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Yes. A simple chicken paella goes down well with children. Include children in your numbers.
Can you serve drinks?
We can make sangria, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
What affects the price in Eynsham
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How many guests are eating
- Distance and access to the venue
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
