How our paella party catering works in Terriers
Paella is made for relaxed parties: it’s served from the pan and shared, so nobody needs a formal seating plan. On the menu are vegetable paella, seafood paella and mixed paella, and typical bookings are for naming days and christenings and family get-togethers.
In a place like Terriers, a garden party is generally the easiest option. Tell us about access and parking, and we will bring everything else. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated.

What’s in the pans
Tapas
Patatas bravas, tortilla, croquetas and olives while the paella cooks.
Vegetable paella
Vegetable paella in its own right, with peppers, beans and artichokes.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Make sure children stay back from the pans
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
The cooking area stays tidy and safe, with a clear space around the burners.
Churros and chocolate go down well with all ages.

How it works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. Sunset in Terriers is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June. After dark, the cooking area needs good lighting.
