About our tapas catering in Tottenham Hale
Tapas pair naturally with a live paella, served while the paella cooks, but they work on their own too. We are often asked to cater evening sharing boards and engagement celebrations, with gambas al ajillo, patatas bravas and tortilla española.
In Tottenham Hale, tapas suit drinks receptions, evening parties and work events, in a home, a venue or an office. Let us know about parking and loading. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

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.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
