How our paella party catering works in Troy Town
Most gardens can host a paella party, if there’s a level spot away from fences and trees. Not sure? Send a picture. For garden get-togethers and baby celebrations, we will put together a menu of seafood paella, mixed paella and churros for your guests.
Near Troy Town, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the set-up. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: the menu, the staff and any extras.
Space, weather and the venue
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Common questions in Troy Town
What’s the nearest station to Troy Town for guests?
The closest is Edenbridge station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
How far is Troy Town from London?
Roughly 21 miles from the centre of London.
Can you cook in the rain?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
Do you offer halal options?

Of course. A simple chicken paella goes down well with children. Tell us how many children are coming.

Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.

Planners, venues and businesses

The process
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. Sunset in Troy Town is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. After dark, the cooking area needs good lighting.
- We check your date and the space.
- You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
- We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
- The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
- We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.
How to prepare
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Leave space around the cooking area

Planning for every diet
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
- Warn the neighbours
Booked staff help serve and clear.
A jug of sangria sets the tone, with an alcohol-free version for drivers and children.
