Common questions in Farley Hill

Is Farley Hill too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Farley Hill from London?

Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you cater for young children?

Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.

Do you cook it at the event?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.

Is paella smart enough for a wedding?

It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on how it is served.

Is the paella gluten-free?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.

Do you come to Farley Hill?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Farley Hill. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Paella compared with other options

Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Paella covers them with separate pans. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

Read Our pricing Or What paella catering costs.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

How the day works

On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. For a summer wedding in Farley Hill, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is generally served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
  2. We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
  3. We fit our timings around your speeches, photos and venue.
  4. On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
  5. We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.

How to prepare

  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Let us know the timings for the day

How we price wedding paella catering

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Parking and unloading
  • Your choice of paellas
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Starters, canapés and desserts

Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
