Paella party catering for your party in Weybridge
Most gardens can host a paella party, as long as there’s a flat spot clear of fences and branches. Not sure? Send a photo. Whether it’s garden get-togethers and wakes and celebrations of life, we’ll put together a menu of vegetable paella, chicken and chorizo paella and mixed paella and more.
Birthdays, christenings and summer parties in Weybridge often happen at home or in a local hall. Live paella works at both, as long as there is outdoor or ventilated space. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Step by step
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it’s served at its best. Sunset in Weybridge is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. If the party runs past dark, we will need light where we cook and serve.
- You tell us the date, address, guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a menu suggestion and a clear price.
- On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
- Your guests watch the paella cook, with tapas first if you’ve chosen them.
- We serve it hot from the pan, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook

Your questions about paella party catering in Weybridge
Is Weybridge close to London?
Roughly 18 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at United Reform Church?
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 normally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you supply crockery?
If you need them. Crockery or disposables are available.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Typically, if there is outdoor space to cook. Ask the venue about live cooking.
Do you provide drinks?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Do you do desserts?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
Why choose live paella in Weybridge?
Compared with a barbecue, paella is served all at once, so nobody waits for the next batch. And there’s no host stuck at the grill. Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
