Catering for every guest

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

  • Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers
  • Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
  • Connect us with your coordinator
  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer

Paella can be served at the pans or carried to the tables by staff.

Spanish desserts, or your own wedding cake, finish the meal.

Prices and what affects them

Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • How long we’re needed on site
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • The paellas you choose

Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Details that help

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • Expected numbers
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your wedding, and we’ll put together a menu and price.

Live paella or other catering?

Plated wedding meals need a kitchen and more staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and permission, and feels more relaxed. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why Bush Hill Park hosts choose us

  • Every diet catered for, pan by pan
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • Served hot, straight from the pan
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment

Common questions in Bush Hill Park

We’re having a ceremony at St Stephen's Parish Church: can you cater afterwards?

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

Is parking a problem for events in Bush Hill Park?

It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will plan unloading around it.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.

Is the paella gluten-free?

We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.

Can you serve drinks?

Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

Can you provide dessert?

Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.

Should I cook it myself?

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.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Space, weather and the venue

If a space is not suitable, we will tell you. What matters most:

  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

Bush Hill Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
