Paella party catering for your party in Warbleton
It’s easy to cater for a mix of guests: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood pan and a vegetable or vegan pan side by side. A plain chicken paella keeps children happy. On the menu are churros, vegetable paella and tapas, and we’re frequently booked for neighbourhood celebrations and naming days and christenings.
In a small place like Warbleton, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

What happens on the day
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your party. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. A summer party in Warbleton stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
- We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
- In goes the rice, and guests gather.
- It’s served hot, and we clear away afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Name one person we can ask on the day

How we price paella party catering
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Parking and unloading
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- How many courses
- Guest numbers
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We will send you a quote.
Details that help
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- Your date and when you want to eat
- The venue or postcode
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your party, and we’ll suggest a menu. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
DIY catering saves money but costs you time. Book us and you’re free to enjoy it. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan

Warbleton questions
We’re having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Mary: 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.
Can you cook at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan for them.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one in your enquiry.
Can you cook in my back garden?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level spot clear of fences and trees. Send a photo and we’ll check.
Does it make plenty of smoke?
There is a cooking smell, but much less smoke than a barbecue. Let the neighbours know.
How much does paella party catering cost in Warbleton?
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Should I cook it myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Where we can cook in Warbleton

- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- A picture of the garden helps us check the space
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
