About our paella party catering in Stud Green
A paella party means no cooking for you, and no formal dinner either. We set up in a corner of the garden or venue and cook while your guests chat. Whether it is birthday parties and wakes and memorial gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of seafood paella, vegetable paella and mixed paella and more.
Near Stud Green, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll plan the set-up. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Diets, allergies and planning
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Keep a clear zone around the cooking area
- Warn the neighbours
- Give separate numbers for children
Booked staff help serve and clear.
A jug of sangria sets the tone, with an alcohol-free version for drivers and children.
Live paella or other catering?
Cooking yourself saves money but costs you the party. With live paella, you’re a guest too. Larger events usually cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What you get with us
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- Paella cooked from scratch on site
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks

How the day works
When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. At midsummer, it is light in Stud Green until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- You tell us the date, address, guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a menu suggestion and a clear price.
- On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
- Your guests watch the paella cook, with tapas first if you’ve chosen them.
- We serve from the pan and clear our cooking area away when we are done.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
