How our tapas catering works in Mill Hill
Tapas and paella go hand in hand, served while the paella cooks, but they work on their own too. Whether it is evening grazing and table tapas as a starter, we can cook Serrano ham, padrón peppers and patatas bravas for your guests.
In Mill Hill, tapas suit drinks receptions, evening parties and work events, indoors or out. Tell us about access and parking. Everything is cooked from scratch at your event, never made in advance and reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.

Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
- How long we are needed on site
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Anything your venue supplies
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and rough timings
- A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field

What about parking in Mill Hill?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will work around it.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We’ll talk it through before the day.

It depends on whether they’re a starter, canapés or the whole meal. We will suggest quantities for your event.
Do you provide serving staff?
Staff make canapés work, which we can supply.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Tapas for events in Mill Hill
Mill Hill is about 1 mile north-east of Burnt Oak, in Greater London. Tell us where your event in Mill Hill will be, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. Mill Hill is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cook. You can also see our page for London, about 10 miles away.
A picnic in Bittacy Hill Park? Check the park’s rules first; a garden or hired venue is frequently easier for catering. After a ceremony at a church such as St Paul's Church, canapé tapas with the drinks keep guests happy during photos.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
