Paella party catering for Palmers Green events
How our paella party catering works in Palmers Green
Birthdays, anniversaries, christenings and summer get-togethers all suit live paella. The cooking is the centrepiece, and the food is served hot and generous. Popular choices include tapas, chicken and chorizo paella and churros, and we’re regularly asked to cater naming days and christenings and wakes and memorial gatherings.
In Palmers Green, a back-garden party is the usual choice, even if the garden is small. A level spot away from fences and trees, plus parking nearby, is all we need. Send a picture of the garden. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.

Live paella or other catering?
A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Separate paella pans cover everyone. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
- Fast service from the pan
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu

Planning the cooking area
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
As a London location, Palmers Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Questions from Palmers Green
Which station should guests use for Palmers Green?
Palmers Green station, in Palmers Green itself.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Palmers Green United Reformed Church?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you do starters?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Do you cook at halls and clubs?
Yes, if there’s a suitable outdoor or ventilated spot to cook. Ask the venue about live cooking.
Is the paella gluten-free?
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 many different paellas?
Two or three covers most guests. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
Who clears up?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
How do you work out quantities?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.
Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up the pans and burners, and cook and serve without fuss. A summer party in Palmers Green stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- We check your date and the space.
