How our paella party catering works in Yarmouth
Mixed groups are easy: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood pan and a vegetable or vegan pan side by side. A plain chicken paella keeps children happy. On the menu are churros, chicken and chorizo paella and mixed paella, and we’re regularly asked to cater naming days and christenings and anniversaries and engagement parties.
In a small place like Yarmouth, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll plan the set-up. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.

Planning help
Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Questions from Yarmouth
What about events near the coast?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St. James' 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 generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Do you cater in Yarmouth?
Yes, we do. Yarmouth is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes, we do. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
Do you cater for children?
Paella is popular with children, especially a mild chicken one. Tell us how many and their ages.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables are available.
Do you cater for young children?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Give separate numbers for children
- Keep a clear zone around the cooking area
We’re set up before guests arrive.
Churros and chocolate go down well with all ages.
Hosting a paella party in Yarmouth
Yarmouth is about 4 miles south-east of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. Give us the address of your party in Yarmouth, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. We cook in 125 places in the Isle of Wight, from the larger towns to small villages. Our events stretch from Yarmouth to Southampton (about 15 miles away).
After a christening at a church like St. James' Church, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends. If guests are coming by rail, Lymington Pier station is about 3.9 miles away. The coast is within about 3 miles, so seafood paella frequently features, with shelter from the breeze planned in.
For paella party catering in PO41, we plan around your venue. Whether your party is on High Street, Station Road and Alma Place or a nearby road, we will bring the pans to you. Yarmouth sits on or near the A3054, which makes travel to your party easy. If your venue is just outside Yarmouth, we also cover Bouldnor (1 mile east), Cranmore (2 miles east), Hamstead (3 miles east), Shalfleet (3 miles east) and East End (5 miles north). Larger places within reach include Newport (9 miles east), Ryde (15 miles east), Cowes (9 miles north-east), Sandown (15 miles east), Shanklin (15 miles east) and Ventnor (15 miles south-east).

Live paella or other catering?

Why book with us
- A clear, itemised quote
- Served hot, straight from the pan
- Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
- Paella cooked from scratch on site
