Paella party catering in Remenham, cooked live
A paella party takes the cooking off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We set up in the garden or venue and cook as your guests chat. We cook vegetable paella, chicken and chorizo paella and seafood paella, and we’re regularly asked to cater anniversary celebrations and street and neighbourhood parties.
Near Remenham, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

What affects the price in Remenham
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Parking and unloading
- How many staff you need
- How many guests are eating
- How long we’re needed on site
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.

The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Please include:
- What the venue already provides
- Expected numbers
- A picture of the space, if you can
- Where the event is

Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Plan seats for most guests

Common questions in Remenham
Could we have live paella in Fawley Court and Temple Island?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Do you cater for children?
Paella is popular with children, especially a mild chicken one. Let us know numbers and ages.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Usually, if there’s outdoor space to cook. Ask the venue about live cooking.
How many different paellas?
Normally two or three, so every guest has a choice. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
Is halal food available?
Yes, on request. Let us know your halal numbers, and we’ll cook a separate pan.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Should I cook it myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Space, weather and the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- A picture of the garden helps us check the space
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think before you book.
