Questions from Cade Street
Is Cade Street close to London?
About 40 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Can we try the food first?
Ask us about tastings when you get in touch.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Just add them to your numbers. Let us know when they need feeding.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Can you cook indoors?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Can you liaise with the venue coordinator?
Of course. We will speak to your venue about access and timings.
Do you offer halal options?
We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

- Connect us with your coordinator
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Ask about diets and allergies with your RSVPs
On the day, we liaise with your coordinator or toastmaster, so you do not have to.

The process
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is served at its best. For a summer wedding in Cade Street, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so an evening paella for evening guests is normally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- We check availability for your date.
- You pick the courses and dishes.
- We confirm everything with your venue.
- The pans cook while guests enjoy the drinks.
- We serve and clear our cooking area.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Check the venue allows live cooking

Planning help
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
