Paella party catering in Wimbledon Chase, cooked live

We cater parties at homes, village halls with outdoor space, clubs and hired venues. Whether it is big family gatherings and street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers, we can cook mixed paella, seafood paella and tapas for your guests.

Most parties in Wimbledon Chase are in back gardens, which in London can be compact. A level spot away from fences and trees, plus parking nearby, is all we need. Send a photo of the garden. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

Planning for every diet

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Count adults and children separately
  • Make sure most people can sit to eat
  • Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
  • Put out bins for general waste and recycling

We arrive before your guests to set up.

Churros with chocolate are a hit with children and adults.

Your questions about paella party catering in Wimbledon Chase

We’re having a ceremony at St Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?

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 usually elsewhere. Send us the reception address.

Could we have live paella in Cannon Hill Common?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.

Do you cater in Wimbledon Chase?

Yes, we do. We cook at events in Wimbledon Chase and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

Can you cook in the rain?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.

What does paella party catering cost?

We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

Can you cater a party at a village hall?

Generally. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.

Will there be enough food?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

For event organisers in Wimbledon Chase

Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.

What’s in the pans

Chicken & chorizo paella

A smoky favourite with children and adults, and a good choice for guests who do not eat seafood.

Vegetable paella

Vegetarians get a real main course.

Step by step

Your timings come first. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. A summer party in Wimbledon Chase stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. Send us your date, address and numbers.
  2. You get a menu and a quote.
  3. We arrive before your guests and set up.
  4. Guests watch the paella cook.
  5. We serve, then clear our area.

Preparing for the day

  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
