Paella party catering for your party in Temple Valley
Paella is relaxed food: it is served from the pan and shared, without any fuss. Whether it’s family get-togethers and wakes and celebrations of life, we’ll put together a menu of seafood paella, churros and mixed paella.
Country parties near Temple Valley suit live paella: cooked in the open and served hot. Have a gazebo ready in case of rain. We serve straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it’s ready.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

Why choose live paella in Temple Valley?
Cooking yourself saves money but costs you the party. With live paella, you are a guest too. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What you get with us
- No hidden extras in your quote
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- Real theatre, not just catering

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work. What matters most:
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Level ground for the pans and burners
