Tapas catering for your event in Wexham Court
Tapas are made for sharing and talking over. We serve them in two ways: canapés carried round while guests mingle, or table tapas set down to share. Whether it is birthday and anniversary parties and engagement drinks, we can cook Manchego with membrillo, patatas bravas and tortilla española.
Near Wexham Court, tapas suit gardens, barns and marquees. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
DIY paella versus live catering
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

What to look for in a quote
- Allergen information for each dish
- The venue requirements
- How many staff are coming, and for how long
- Whether crockery, cutlery and napkins are included
What affects the price in Wexham Court
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Distance and access to the venue
- Guest numbers
- How long we’re needed on site
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Common questions in Wexham Court
We’re having a ceremony at Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station should guests use for Wexham Court?
The closest is Slough station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. A simple chicken paella is usually popular with children. Include children in your numbers.
Can you do sangria?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Do you do tapas on their own?
Of course. Tapas can be booked without paella.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Tell us what role tapas play
- Collect dietary needs
- Plan more dishes if tapas are the meal
- Pair tapas with sangria, cava or sherry
Canapés circulate with drinks as guests arrive.
