How our paella party catering works in Wyke
Paella is made for relaxed parties: served from the pan, shared and enjoyed, so nobody needs a formal seating plan. For celebrations of life and leaving dos and retirements, we can cook seafood paella, churros and tapas.
A country party near Wyke is perfect for paella: cooked outside, served from the pan. Plan a gazebo in case of rain. You will know exactly what’s included before you book: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose.

Hosting a paella party in Wyke
Wyke is about 3 miles east of Aldershot, in Surrey. We cater parties at homes, gardens and venues in Wyke and the surrounding area. Wyke is one of 395 places in Surrey we cover.
Local halls and clubs near Wyke are an option if the garden is small. Nearby historic houses include Wanborough Manor (2.2 miles south-east) and Loseley Park (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.

FAQs for Wyke
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you come out to small places like Wyke?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you cater for children?
Of course. A simple chicken paella goes down well with children. Tell us how many children are coming.
Should we have more than one paella?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Wyke.
Is it really cooked live?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.
Will there be enough food?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
Paella compared with other options

The process
The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. For a late-May party in Wyke, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it is about 9:20pm. If the party runs past dark, we’ll need light where we cook and serve.
- Send us the date, the address, numbers and diets.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Give us your final numbers and diets
