Paella party catering for your party in Woolpack Corner
Live paella suits birthdays, anniversaries, christenings and summer parties. The cooking is the centrepiece, and everyone gets a hot, generous plate. Popular choices include tapas, seafood paella and mixed paella, and we’re often booked for big birthdays and garden parties and summer barbecues.
In a small place like Woolpack Corner, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Woolpack Corner: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Parish Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station should guests use for Woolpack Corner?
The closest is Headcorn station, roughly 4.4 miles away.
Is the paella cooked on site?
Yes. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, where your guests can watch.
Do you cater for children?
Yes. Children usually love a plain chicken paella. Tell us how many children are coming.
Who clears up?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
How much is live paella catering?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a price.
Can you bring crockery?
We can. Tell us what your venue provides and we’ll include the rest in the quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.

A closer look at the menu
Churros
Churros are a treat for all ages.
Chicken & chorizo paella
A smoky favourite with children and adults, ideal for guests who skip seafood.
Should I cook it myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

How the day works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. A summer party in Woolpack Corner 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.
- Send us the date, the address, numbers and diets.
- You get a menu suggestion and a clear price.
- On the day, we set up and get cooking.
- Your guests watch the paella cook, with tapas first if you’ve chosen them.
- We serve from the pan and clear our cooking area away when we’re done.
