FAQs for Bowes Park
Can you cook in Woodside Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Greek Orthodox Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What if the timings change?
Tell us and we’ll adjust. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and time the rice so it is served at its best.
Is paella smart enough for a wedding?
Served well, it feels generous and special: canapés, tapas, crockery and table service.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Bowes Park.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
Planning the cooking area
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- A separate open-sided gazebo if the meal is in a marquee
Bowes Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
