Paella party catering in Gillette Corner
How our paella party catering works in Gillette Corner
A paella party takes the cooking off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We set up in a corner of the garden or venue and cook while your guests chat. Whether it is neighbourhood celebrations and leaving dos and retirements, we’ll put together a menu of tapas, vegetable paella and seafood paella for your guests.
Most parties in Gillette Corner are in back gardens, which in London can be compact. We need a level spot clear of fences and trees, and somewhere to park and unload. A photo of the garden helps. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

What happens on the day
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your party. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. At midsummer, it is light in Gillette Corner until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

Planning help
Why choose paella party catering in Gillette Corner?
It suits mixed ages and mixed diets, from children to grandparents.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Retirement celebrations
- Family reunions
- Naming days and christenings
- Wakes and memorial gatherings
After a christening at a church like St Mary's Church, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends.
Questions to ask before you book
- The venue requirements
- The wet-weather plan
- Any travel, parking or access charges
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- A quick photo of the spot helps us plan
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
Gillette Corner is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Churros
- Chicken & chorizo paella
- Vegetable paella
- Seafood paella
- Mixed paella
- Paella Valenciana
- Tapas
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Have bins ready
- Count adults and children separately
- Have cover ready for a shower
- Collect dietary needs with your invites
When you are ready to eat, we serve straight from the pan.
We can bring plates, cutlery and staff.

- Roughly how many adults and children
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A picture of where we’d cook
- What the venue already provides
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get a menu idea and a price. Just use our quote form.
Common questions in Gillette Corner
Could we have live paella in Boston Manor Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
We’re having a ceremony at St Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
If you want special but not formal, live paella fits perfectly. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
