Stone parties: what to know
Stone is about 2 miles south-west of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. We bring paella party catering to homes, gardens and venues in Stone and the surrounding area. Stone is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire we cover. Our events stretch from Stone to Oxford (about 16 miles away).
After a christening at a church like Church of St John the Baptist, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends. Nearby historic houses include Waddesdon Manor (4.1 miles north-west). Grand settings like these often have strict catering rules, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Stone is within about 7 miles of the Chilterns National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.

The menu, dish by dish
Tapas
Patatas bravas, tortilla, croquetas and olives while the paella cooks.
Seafood paella
A seafood pan with prawns and mussels, for the fish lovers.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
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.

Why choose live paella in Stone?
A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Paella covers everyone with separate pans. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

Prices and what affects them
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- How many guests are eating
- How many courses
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Travel, parking and access
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed before booking.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which courses you have in mind
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Your date and when you want to eat
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will make suggestions. To start, fill in our quote form.
What happens on the day
The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand. A summer party in Stone stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with your date, address, numbers and any diets.
- We suggest a menu and confirm a quote.
- On the day, we set up and get cooking.
- The paella cooks while your guests chat, with any tapas served first.
- We serve from the pan and clear our cooking area away when we’re done.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level spot for the cooking area
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

- Give separate numbers for children
- Have bins ready
- Warn the neighbours
- Ask guests about diets when you invite them
If you’ve booked staff, they’ll help serve and clear.
