How our paella party catering works in Shepperton Green

For a party in Shepperton Green, your garden is frequently the best venue. Let us know how we can get to the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Shepperton Green questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary Magdalene: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
What’s the nearest station to Shepperton Green for guests?
Shepperton station, about 0.7 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.
Do you cook at halls and clubs?
Generally, if there is outdoor space to cook. Check the venue allows live cooking.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
How early should we book?
Early for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
Do you cook inside?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
DIY paella versus live catering
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Planning the cooking area
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.
