About our paella party catering in Newland Green
Mixed groups are easy: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood pan and a vegetable or vegan pan side by side. Children normally love a simple chicken paella. Popular choices include chicken and chorizo paella, churros and seafood paella, and we are often booked for anniversary celebrations and milestone birthdays.
Country parties near Newland Green suit live paella: cooked outside, served from the pan. Plan a gazebo in case of rain. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
Newland Green parties: what to know

What paella party catering costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- The length of service
- Distance and access to the venue
- Waiting and bar staff
There’s 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.

Common questions in Newland Green
Can you cook at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
When should I book?
As early as you can for summer weekends, which fill up first. Ask about your date.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
How much paella per person?
We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.
Do you cover Newland Green?
Yes, we do. Newland Green is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Do you do desserts?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
What’s in the pans
Chicken & chorizo paella
Chicken and chorizo is a crowd-pleaser, though it is not traditional in Valencia.
Tapas
Bravas, tortilla, croquetas and more while the paella cooks.
How the day works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your party. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. A summer party in Newland Green stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose your paellas and any extras.
- The burners go on and the sofrito starts.
- In goes the rice, and guests gather.
- We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.
How to prepare
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Tell us when you want to eat
How to get a price
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote.
