Live paella party catering in Pinner Green
Planning the cooking area
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Level ground for the pans and burners
As a London location, Pinner Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Paella party catering for your party in Pinner Green
A paella party works in most gardens, if there’s a level spot away from fences and trees. Not sure? Send a picture. Typical bookings include birthday parties and big family gatherings, with churros, mixed paella and tapas.
Most parties in Pinner Green are in back gardens, which in London can be compact. We need a level spot clear of fences and trees, and somewhere to park and unload. Send a picture of the garden. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Pinner Green: your questions answered
What about parking in Pinner Green?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll plan unloading around it.
We’re having a ceremony at Christian Science Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is the paella cooked on site?
Yes. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.
What do you need at the venue?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.
How much paella per person?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Will the neighbours notice?
Paella is cooked over gas, so there is cooking steam and smell but little smoke. Neighbours may well want an invitation.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.

Should I cook it myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving.
