Dietary needs and planning tips
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Add sangria or cava
- Keep seafood and meat dishes clearly separate
- Ask guests about diets and allergies
- Allow more variety if tapas are the whole meal
Table tapas are set down to share at the start of the meal.
Churros or crema catalana to finish.
Should I cook it myself?
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Live paella or other catering?
Tapas are flexible, so they fit most plans. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Your questions about tapas catering in Mursley
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What’s the nearest station to Mursley for guests?
The closest is Bletchley station, roughly 4.5 miles away.
What do you need at the venue?
Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Do you cook inside?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
How much does tapas catering cost in Mursley?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.
How do you work out quantities?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
Who clears up?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
