Paella party catering for Uxbridge events

How our paella party catering works in Uxbridge

You get to be a guest at your own party: no shopping, prep or cooking. We take care of the food. We are often asked to cater birthday parties and family get-togethers, serving mixed paella, seafood paella and vegetable paella.

In a place like Uxbridge, a garden party is generally the easiest option. Tell us about access and parking, and we’ll do the rest. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Planners, venues and businesses

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Dishes our guests love

Vegetable paella

Vegetable paella in its own right.

Churros

Sugary churros with chocolate.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

FAQs for Uxbridge

Is Uxbridge close to London?

Roughly 17 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Andrew?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.

Do you do starters?

Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

Will the neighbours notice?

Paella is cooked over gas, so there’s cooking steam and smell but little smoke. Neighbours may well want an invitation.

When should I book?

Early is best, but ask even if it is soon. Send your date and we’ll check.

How much does paella party catering cost in Uxbridge?

The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Do you cook it at the event?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.

Can you supply plates?

Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables can be added to your booking.

Diets, allergies and planning

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:

  • Give separate numbers for children
  • Add a diet question to the invitation
  • Have bins ready
  • Plan seats for most guests

When service is finished, we pack down quietly, so the party carries on.

Sangria sets the mood.

The process

Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our cooking area, and get on with cooking and serving. A summer party in Uxbridge stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. We check your date and the space.
  2. You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
  3. We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
  4. In goes the rice, and guests gather.
  5. It is served hot, and we clear away afterwards.

12 questions to ask before you book

Is live paella right for your party?

Compared with a barbecue, paella is served all at once, so nobody waits for the next batch. And nobody is stuck at the grill. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

  • Paella cooked from scratch on site
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
