How our paella party catering works in Kilburn
Homes, gardens, clubs and hired venues all work in and around Kilburn. For wakes and memorial gatherings and anniversaries and engagement parties, we can cook vegetable paella, tapas and seafood paella.
Most parties in Kilburn are in back gardens, which in London can be compact. A level spot away from fences and trees, plus parking nearby, is all we need. A photo of the garden helps. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, with each paella cooked in its own pan.

Kilburn questions
Which station should guests use for Kilburn?
Kilburn has its own station: Queens Park (London) station.
Could we have live paella in Queen’s Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Do you cater in Kilburn?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Kilburn is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, in front of your guests.
Do you do desserts?
We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
Do you provide drinks?
We can make sangria, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
Planning the cooking area
If a space is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
As a London location, Kilburn is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.
