How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it is served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. For a late-May party in Furner's Green, sunset is around 8:50pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. If the party runs past dark, we will need light where we cook and serve.

Furner's Green parties: what to know
Furner's Green is about 5 miles east of Haywards Heath, in East Sussex. Give us the address of your party in Furner's Green, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. We cover all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex. Our events stretch from Furner's Green to Brighton (about 14 miles away).
Historic houses near Furner's Green include Priest House (5 miles north-west). Grand settings like these often have strict catering rules, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as The Parish Church of All Saints, with a paella lunch at home or in a hall afterwards. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Furner's Green, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
We cook at parties all over the TN22 postcode area and the streets around it. That could mean a party in a garden on Tanyard Lane and Slider's Lane. Other places close to Furner's Green for paella party catering include Danehill (1 mile north), Chelwood Common (2 miles north), Horsted Keynes (2 miles north-west), Chelwood Gate (2 miles north) and Nutley (2 miles north-east). Further out, we also cater in Lewes (10 miles south), Hailsham (15 miles south-east), Crowborough (7 miles east), Uckfield (5 miles south-east), Newhaven (15 miles south) and Peacehaven (15 miles south).

Diets, allergies and planning
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Have cover ready for a shower
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
Children love watching the paella cook, at a safe distance.
Add bread, salad and lemon.
Planners, venues and businesses
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.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Should I cook it myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
FAQs for Furner's Green
Can you cook in Sheffield Park Garden?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking normally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Can you supply crockery?
If you need them. Proper crockery or good-quality disposables can be added.
Do you cover Furner's Green?
Yes, we do. We cook at events in Furner's Green and across East Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you cook indoors?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Will the neighbours notice?
Gas cooking means steam and a good smell, not much smoke. The smell is usually the best advert for the party.
Live paella or other catering?
Ordering in is easy but forgettable. Live paella is something guests remember. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
