Ruislip Manor parties: what to know

Ruislip Manor is about 1 mile south of Ruislip, in Greater London. For paella party catering in Ruislip Manor, we can cook in gardens, marquees, barns, courtyards and offices in and around Ruislip Manor. We cater in all 764 towns and villages in Greater London. Our events stretch from Ruislip Manor to London (about 14 miles away).

Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as Church of St Paul, with a paella lunch at home or in a hall afterwards. Parks such as Church Field Gardens generally need permission for cooking, so a garden or hired venue is often easier.

Questions from Ruislip Manor

Can you cook in Church Field Gardens?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

Is parking a problem for events in Ruislip Manor?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.

Can you cater a party at a village hall?

Generally. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

How do you work out quantities?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.

Should we have more than one paella?

Usually two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.

Do you do desserts?

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.

Can you bring crockery?

Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

How the day works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our cooking area, and get on with cooking and serving. For a late-May party in Ruislip Manor, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:25pm. After dark, the cooking area needs good lighting.

  1. Send us the date, the address, numbers and diets.
  2. We suggest a menu and confirm a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
  4. Your guests watch the paella cook, with tapas first if you’ve chosen them.
  5. We serve it hot from the pan, then pack down.

How to prepare

  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

Where we can cook in Ruislip Manor

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
