FAQs for Fortis Green
What’s the nearest station to Fortis Green for guests?
The closest is Alexandra Palace station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Can you cook in Cherry Tree Wood?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Is my garden big enough?
Often, yes, if there’s a level spot clear of fences and trees. Send a photo and we’ll check.
Will the neighbours notice?
There is a cooking smell, but much less smoke than a barbecue. A friendly note to the neighbours helps.
What do you need at the venue?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a photo.
Is the paella cooked on site?
It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Planning help
Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
