Live paella party catering in Maids Moreton

Paella party catering in Maids Moreton, made fresh on the day

You get to enjoy your own party: no shopping, no cooking, no hours at the stove. The food is our job. Typical bookings include garden get-togethers and wakes and memorial gatherings, serving mixed paella, churros and seafood paella.

A country party near Maids Moreton is perfect for paella: cooked outside, served from the pan. Plan a gazebo in case of rain. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Should I cook it myself?

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

DIY catering saves money but costs you time. Book us and you are free to enjoy it. Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We will send you a quote.

FAQs for Maids Moreton

We are having a ceremony at Church of St Edmund: can you cater afterwards?

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. Send us the reception address.

Is Maids Moreton close to London?

About 52 miles from central London.

How much space do you need?

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

Can you cook indoors?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Do you cover Maids Moreton?

We do. We cook at events in Maids Moreton and across Buckinghamshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.

How it works

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. For a late-May party in Maids Moreton, sunset is around 9:00pm; at midsummer it is about 9:25pm. After dark, the cooking area needs good lighting.
