Common questions in Brownbread Street

Do you come out to small places like Brownbread Street?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

Is paella smart enough for a wedding?

It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on presentation and service.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.

Do you work with our venue?

Of course. We are happy to talk to your venue about access, timings and requirements.

Do you offer tastings?

Ask us when you enquire and we will explain the options.

How much does wedding paella catering cost in Brownbread Street?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Is the paella gluten-free?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.

Step by step

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan at the agreed time. At midsummer, sunset in Brownbread Street is about 9:15pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:00pm.

  1. Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan your menu course by course.
  3. Timings are agreed with your venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve each course.
  5. We clear our area; staff stay as booked.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather

Organising for someone else?

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Space, weather and the venue

The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:

  • A separate open-sided gazebo if the meal is in a marquee
  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • The venue’s permission for live cooking

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.

What affects the price in Brownbread Street

There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Guest numbers
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

What to tell us

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Where the event is
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • The date and rough timings

Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, use our quote form.
