About our paella party catering in Rush Green
A paella party means no cooking for you, and no formal dinner either. We set up in the garden or venue and cook as your guests chat. Whether it’s birthday parties and garden get-togethers, we can cook tapas, churros and seafood paella for your guests.
Most parties in Rush Green are in back gardens, which in London can be compact. A level spot away from fences and trees, plus parking nearby, is all we need. A photo of the garden helps. Everything is cooked from scratch at your party, never made in advance and reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.

- Fast service from the pan
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available

Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
- Warn the neighbours
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
We keep the cooking area tidy and safe, with space kept clear around the burners.
Tapas and nibbles while the paella cooks keep hunger at bay.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s 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. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
