Our tapas catering in Wokingham

Sangria and bar staff can be added, for a complete drinks and tapas package. On the menu are patatas bravas, padrón peppers and croquetas, and typical bookings are for work receptions and canapés with welcome drinks.

The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand.

Tapas for events across Wokingham

Tapas work for town receptions and village parties across Wokingham.

Reading: After a ceremony at a church such as All Nations Christian Centre, canapé tapas with the drinks keep guests happy during photos. For guests coming by train, Reading West station is about 0.7 miles away. Evening receptions in Reading stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so canapés can go round outdoors on a summer evening.

Is live paella right for you?

Standard canapés can feel samey. Tapas bring something different.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How each diet is kept separate
  • What the caterer needs from your venue
  • Whether travel is included
  • How many staff are coming, and for how long

Before you choose a spot

Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Venue approval for outside catering
  • A spot for our serving station
  • Room on tables for sharing dishes

What affects the price in Wokingham

Your quote will be clear and itemised. The main things that affect it are:

  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • The length of service
  • How many staff you need
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
