- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert

Heathrow questions
Do you come out to small places like Heathrow?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Heathrow close to London?
About 16 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you set up in a small garden?
Most gardens are fine. We need a level spot, clearance from anything flammable and reasonable access. A photo helps.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
Do you cook inside?
Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Can you serve drinks?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana.
What space do you need to cook?
Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
What we need at the venue
If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
What we offer
- Vegetable paella
- Mixed paella
- Tapas
- Paella Valenciana
- Churros
- Chicken & chorizo paella
- Seafood paella
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
- Keep a clear zone around the cooking area
- Collect dietary needs with your invites
- Let the neighbours know
At food time, we serve straight from the pan, while you enjoy your guests.

Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
For event organisers in Heathrow
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Who books paella party catering in Heathrow?
It’s sociable food, ideal when people want to mingle.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Big family gatherings
- Summer garden parties
- Christenings and naming days
- Birthday parties
Nearby historic houses include Osterley House (4.6 miles east). Grand settings like these frequently have strict catering rules, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.
