Paella party catering near Twitham

Is live paella right for your party?

A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Separate paella pans cover everyone. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We will send you a quote.

Paella party catering in Twitham, made fresh on the day

A paella party takes the cooking off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We set up in the garden or venue and cook as your guests chat. Whether it is garden parties and summer barbecues and big birthdays, we can cook tapas, churros and mixed paella and more.

Near Twitham, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will plan the set-up. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Your questions about paella party catering in Twitham

We are having a ceremony at Church of St James: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.

Is Twitham close to London?

About 60 miles from central London.

Can you cater a party at a village hall?

Normally, if there’s outdoor space to cook. Ask the venue about live cooking.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.

Does it make plenty of smoke?

Less smoke than a barbecue, more smell. Let the neighbours know.

Can you do a kids’ option?

Of course. Children usually love a plain chicken paella. Tell us how many children are coming.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.

Our caterer checklist

The menu, dish by dish

Vegetable paella

Vegetable paella in its own right, with peppers, beans and artichokes.

Churros

Fried, sugared and dipped in chocolate.

How the day works

From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your party. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. A summer party in Twitham stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. First, we check the date and the space.
  2. You choose your paellas and any extras.
  3. The burners go on and the sofrito starts.
  4. The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
  5. It’s served hot, and we clear away afterwards.

Preparing for the day

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking

Ask for a quote

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
