About paella catering in NW1W
Paella has always been food for a crowd: cooked in the open in a big, shallow pan and shared straight from it. That is what we bring to events in NW1W. We cook vegan paella, seafood paella and mixed paella, and typical bookings are for family celebrations and christenings and company summer parties.
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan the menu with you, including every diet.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- The paella cooks as guests gather round.
- We serve hot from the pan and clear our cooking area.
What you will pay

Catering events across NW1W
NW1W covers everything from St Pancras, Bloomsbury and Fitzrovia to 0 small villages and hamlets, and live paella suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan parking and access; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.
St Pancras: Nearby historic houses include Dr Johnson's House (0.9 miles south-east) and Benjamin Franklin House (1.3 miles south). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on caterers and cooking early. Parks such as Lincoln's Inn Fields normally need the owner’s permission for cooking, so ask before you plan a party there. Evenings in St Pancras stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the cooking and serving areas need good lighting.
Is live paella right for you?
For something a little different, live paella adds colour, smell and theatre.
What your quote should include
- Whether VAT is included
- What happens if it rains
- How late numbers can change
- How many staff are coming, and for how long
Before you choose a spot
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Pick a mix of paellas to cover every diet
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Plan seating for most guests: paella is easiest eaten sitting down
- Ask for labels on each pan
If you’ve booked staff, they’ll serve, clear and help keep things moving, so you can relax.
Sangria and bar staff can be added to serve drinks you provide.

Common questions in NW1W
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
Is paella a full meal?
It’s a full meal on its own. Many hosts add tapas first or dessert after.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three covers most guests. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
