Littleworth Corner questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Anne: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking typically happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What’s the nearest station to Littleworth Corner for guests?
The closest is Bourne End station, roughly 2.6 miles away.
How long does the paella take?
We get there in good time to set up. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.
How many tapas per person?
We plan quantities around your timings and courses. Tell us more for a suggestion.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Are the tapas fresh?
Yes, hot dishes are finished at the venue so they’re served at their best.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Parking and unloading
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Your choice of paellas
- The length of service
The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

- Make sure dishes are labelled
- Plan more dishes if tapas are the meal
- Ask guests about diets and allergies

Should I cook it myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
