Live paella party catering in High Salvington
How our paella party catering works in High Salvington
A paella party takes the cooking off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We set up in the garden or venue and cook as your guests chat. We are frequently asked to cater street and neighbourhood parties and anniversary celebrations, with tapas, mixed paella and churros.
Around High Salvington, a garden and a gazebo is all you need. A paella pan fits right in. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it is ready.

Parties in High Salvington: gardens, venues and local tips
High Salvington is about 2 miles north of Worthing, in West Sussex. Whether your party is in the middle of High Salvington or on the outskirts, paella party catering works the same way: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price.

For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Durrington-On-Sea station, about 2.2 miles south. After a christening at a church like St Peter, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends. High Salvington is within about 8 miles of the South Downs National Park, so many gardens around here have a great outlook. The coast is within about 4 miles, so seafood paella often features, and we always plan for wind.
We cater parties across the BN13 and BN14 postcode area and the streets around it. Local streets include Mill Lane, Furze Road and Gorse Lane; a party at home on any of them works well with live paella. We also cook at parties in Cote (1 mile south-west), Durrington (1 mile south), Findon (1 mile north), Clapham (2 miles west) and Patching (2 miles west). Further out, we also cater in Horsham (15 miles north), Bognor Regis (13 miles west), Burgess Hill (14 miles north-east), Littlehampton (6 miles south-west), Shoreham-by-Sea (6 miles east) and Lancing (4 miles east).

Catering for every guest
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Keep children and pets away from the burners
- Let the neighbours know
- Have enough chairs for most guests
We are set up before guests arrive, so the cooking is under way as people arrive.
Churros and chocolate go down well with all ages.

What else we do in High Salvington
Step by step
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. A summer party in High Salvington stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- You tell us the date, address, guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a menu suggestion and a clear price.
- On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
- Your guests watch the paella cook, with tapas first if you’ve chosen them.

Preparing for the day

High Salvington questions
How far is High Salvington from London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Peter?
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.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Do you cook it at the event?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.
How many different paellas?
Generally two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
Is halal food available?
We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.
