Hosting a paella party in Worton
Worton is about 3 miles south-west of Kidlington, in Oxfordshire. From the centre of Worton to the outskirts, paella party catering works the same way: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price. Worton is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we cook. We cook right across the region, from Worton to Oxford (about 6 miles away).
If guests are coming by rail, the nearest station is Hanborough station, about 2.3 miles north-west. Historic houses near Worton include Blenheim Palace (3 miles north) and Holywell Manor, Oxford (4.9 miles south-east). Grand settings like these often have strict catering rules, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.

How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. At midsummer, it’s light in Worton until about 9:30pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- We check your date and the space.
- You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
- We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
- The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
- We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.

How to get a price

Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The paellas you choose
- Whether you need crockery
- Timings and hours
- Travel, parking and access
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A photo of the space, if you can
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Somewhere close to park and unload
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about paella party catering in Worton
Is Worton too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Is Worton close to London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you supply plates?
If you need them, yes. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables are available.
What space do you need to cook?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
What if the weather’s bad?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will make a plan B with you.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
