Common questions in Green Street
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St George?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
What does wedding paella catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
When do you arrive?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.
Is paella too casual for a wedding?
With the right presentation, it feels special: canapés, table tapas, good crockery and staff serving the tables.
Can you do our whole wedding menu?
We can cater as much or as little of the day as you like, from canapés to evening food.
Do you take everything away?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Guests normally gather round to watch as the paella takes shape. At midsummer, sunset in Green Street is about 9:15pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:45pm, and in late September about 7:00pm.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Green Street? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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 enjoy the party, let us cook.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
