North Newington questions
How far is North Newington from London?
About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station should guests use for North Newington?
The closest is Banbury station, roughly 2.6 miles away.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
How early should we book?
The sooner the better, but it’s always worth asking. Send your date and we will check.
How many different paellas?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.
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.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
What do you need at the venue?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
What affects the price in North Newington
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- How long we’re needed on site
- Distance and access to the venue
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The address or venue name
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The date and rough timings
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

The process
Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. A summer party in North Newington stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
