Paella party catering for Pyrton events
Paella party catering in Pyrton, made fresh on the day
Most gardens can host a paella party, as long as there is a flat spot clear of fences and branches. Not sure? Send a photo. Typical bookings include big family gatherings and milestone birthdays, with chicken and chorizo paella, churros and tapas.
In a small place like Pyrton, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll handle the rest. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Hog roasts don’t suit vegetarians and vegans. Separate paella pans cover everyone. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us

- Live cooking, not reheated food
- A quote that spells everything out
The process
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. At midsummer, it’s light in Pyrton until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose your paellas and any extras.
- The burners go on and the sofrito starts.
- The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
- It is served hot, and we clear away afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
- Have a level space ready for the pans

Pyrton questions
Do you come out to small places like Pyrton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Pyrton close to London?
About 41 miles from central London.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Tell us what your venue provides and we’ll include the rest in the quote.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.
Can you supply crockery?
Yes, if you need them. Tell us what you need and we will include it in the quote.
How much is live paella catering?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a price.
What paella party catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- How many staff you need
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- How long we are needed on site
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, sides, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A photo of the space, if you can
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Where the event is
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: give us the basics about your party, and we will suggest a menu. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
What we need at the venue
Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We need:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Somewhere close to park and unload
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
