You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

Bognor Regis questions
Which station should guests use for Bognor Regis?
The closest is Bognor Regis station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Is Bognor Regis close to London?
About 55 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.
How much is live paella catering?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
What if the weather’s bad?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Generic canapés all look the same. Spanish tapas bring colour and flavour. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.
