Planning an event in Fulham?
How it works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. Evening receptions in Fulham stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, which suits an outdoor reception.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We suggest a selection and a quote.
- We set up and finish hot tapas on site.
- Canapés go round or tapas go to the tables.
- We pack down when service ends.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Tapas catering in Fulham, cooked live
Tapas are made for sharing and talking over. We serve them in two ways: canapés carried round while guests mingle, or table tapas set down to share. Whether it’s office parties and launches and evening grazing, we’ll put together a menu of croquetas, tortilla española and Manchego with membrillo for your guests.
In Fulham, tapas suit drinks receptions, evening parties and work events, indoors or out. Tell us about access and parking. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

A picnic in Parsons Green (park)? Check the park’s rules first; a garden or hired venue is often easier for catering.

Before you choose a spot
Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:
- Space on each table
- Venue approval for outside catering
- A spot for our serving station
As a London location, Fulham is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Common questions in Fulham
Which station should guests use for Fulham?
The closest is West Brompton station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Could we have live paella in Parsons Green (park)?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
How much does tapas catering cost in Fulham?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a price.
How long do you need on site?
We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Do you do desserts?
Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Let us know if you’d like one in your enquiry.
Is live paella right for your event?
Sandwich buffets are forgettable. Tapas feel like a treat. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
