Our paella catering in TW13

Everything is cooked from scratch on site, starting with a slow sofrito of onion, garlic, peppers and tomato, then the stock, saffron and rice. Typical bookings include anniversary celebrations and naming days and family parties, serving black rice, vegan paella and seafood paella.

Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down.

  2. You get a suggested menu and an itemised quote.
  3. On the day, we set up the burners and pans and get the stock going.
  4. The rice cooks in full view, while tapas or canapés go round.

Planning live paella in TW13

There are 3 towns and 1 villages and hamlets in TW13, so the setting can be anything from Feltham, Ashford and Hanworth to a quiet hamlet: a level, ventilated spot and a clear plan.

Hanworth: If you are celebrating after a service at a church like St Richard's Church, live paella at a garden or venue nearby works well. If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Buckingham Primary School, a paella stall is a crowd-pleaser. In Hanworth, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting where we cook.

Why live paella works

Outdoor events and live paella go together: it is cooked in the open, served hot and eaten together.

If you’re planning any of these, we can help:

  • Milestone birthday parties
  • Fairs, fêtes and festivals
  • Retirement and leaving parties
  • Wedding breakfasts and evening food

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

Dishes our guests love

Paella Valenciana

The original paella from Valencia is a countryside dish of chicken and vegetables, not seafood. It’s frequently the most popular pan at an event.

Mixed paella

Paella mixta combines meat and seafood in one pan.

Is live paella right for you?

Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, live paella is easier for vegetarian, vegan and halal guests, thanks to separate pans. Service from the pan keeps queues moving.

Comparing caterers

  • The deadline for final numbers
  • What the caterer needs from your venue
  • Exactly what’s included in the price
  • How each diet is kept separate

What affects the price in TW13

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Waiting and bar staff
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • How many guests are eating

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Where the event is
  • Expected numbers

Your questions about paella catering in TW13

Can we choose the seafood?

Seafood choices are agreed when we plan the menu, including premium options if you want them.

How much paella per person?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

How much does paella catering cost in TW13?

Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

Do you clear up afterwards?

Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.

Do you cook it at the event?

It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.

Which paella is most popular?

It depends on your guests. Chicken and mixed paellas tend to go first, alongside seafood and vegetable or vegan pans.

  • 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
