Paella catering in GU15: what to expect

Paella has always been food for a crowd: cooked outdoors in a wide, shallow pan and shared. That’s what we bring to events in GU15. We are often asked to cater naming days and family parties and engagement and anniversary parties, serving mixed paella, vegetable paella and paella Valenciana.

From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get a menu and an itemised quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the cooking spot.
  4. On the day, we set up and cook in front of your guests.
  5. It is served straight from the pan, and we clear our area afterwards.

What it costs in GU15

The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

DIY paella versus live catering

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Plan a meat, a seafood and a vegetable or vegan pan
  • Give us separate numbers for children

Once everyone is fed, we clear our cooking area, quietly and quickly.

Tapas or canapés make a good start while the paella cooks.

What we need at the venue

We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

GU15: your questions answered

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Do you offer halal options?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

What happens if it rains?

Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

What space do you need to cook?

Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.

What equipment do you bring?

We bring all the cooking equipment. Tell us what the venue provides, such as tables or crockery.

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
  • Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
