Tapas catering in Burlington Estate, made fresh on the day
Tapas are made for sharing and talking over. Canapés go round while guests mingle, or table tapas go out to share. Whether it’s engagement parties and table tapas as a starter, we can cook gambas al ajillo, Manchego with membrillo and padrón peppers and more.
For a London drinks party in Burlington Estate, canapé tapas are easy to serve in a small space. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it’s ready.

Burlington Estate questions
Can you cook in St Anne's Churchyard?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Which station should guests use for Burlington Estate?
Bond Street station, in Burlington Estate itself.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
Can you do sangria?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Do we need staff for canapés?
Yes, if you want them. Canapés need staff to carry them round.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We will talk it through before the day.
Do you serve drinks with tapas?
We can add sangria and bar staff.
Can we have tapas without paella?
Yes, tapas work on their own, for receptions, parties and evening food.

Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To make it work smoothly:
- Ensure dishes are labelled

- Widen the selection for a tapas-only menu
- Canapés need staff to serve
Hot dishes are finished on site.
Staff to serve canapés.
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
How it works
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s served at its best. Sunset in Burlington Estate is around 9:20pm in June, so canapés can go round outdoors on a summer evening.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers and how you’d like the tapas served.
- We suggest a selection and confirm a quote.
- We arrive, set up and finish hot dishes on site.
- We serve canapés with drinks or set table tapas down to share.
- Afterwards, our equipment is cleared away.
How to prepare
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Tell us when you want to eat
Ask for a quote
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, use our quote form.
