Your questions about paella party catering in Leyton Grange
Is parking a problem for events in Leyton Grange?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Can you cook in Leyton Jubilee Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you cook halal paella?
We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we’ll cook a separate pan.
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.
How much does paella party catering cost in Leyton Grange?
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
Do you cover Leyton Grange?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Leyton Grange. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Is paella OK for kids?
Paella is popular with children, especially a mild chicken one. Let us know numbers and ages.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan for them.
DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.
Live paella or other catering?
If you want special but not formal, live paella fits perfectly. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
