Planning for every diet

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To get it right:

  • Allow more variety if tapas are the whole meal
  • Separate seafood dishes from the rest
  • Book staff to carry canapés round
  • Match tapas with Spanish drinks

Canapés go round with the drinks.

Waiting staff for canapés.

Should I cook it myself?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. 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 enjoy the party, let us cook.

Potter's Green questions

Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking normally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.

Do you cater in Potter's Green?

We do. Potter's Green is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Do you cook tapas on site?

We finish hot dishes on site; cold ones go out as guests arrive.

Is tapas catering available separately?

Absolutely.

Do you take everything away?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
