Questions from Shreding Green

Which station should guests use for Shreding Green?

Langley station, about 0.9 miles south-west of the centre.

We are having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking normally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.

Can you do sangria?

Yes. Sangria can be added, and bar staff if you’re providing the drinks.

Are your tapas vegetarian-friendly?

Lots. Tortilla, bravas and Manchego are popular vegetarian choices.

How much does tapas catering cost in Shreding Green?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.

Can we have tapas without paella?

Absolutely.

What happens if it rains?

We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.

Is the paella gluten-free?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

DIY paella versus live catering

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.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Dishes our guests love

Patatas bravas

Fried potatoes with spicy sauce.

Gambas al ajillo

Garlic prawns with a little chilli.

How the day works

When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. A summer drinks reception in Shreding Green has daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer, ideal for tapas in the garden. By late September it is dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm.

  1. First, we check availability.
  2. You pick the style.
  3. We set up on arrival.
  4. Hot and cold tapas are served.
  5. Afterwards, we clear up.

Before we arrive

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
