Greenhill questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Rosslyn Hill Unitarian Chapel?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
What about parking in Greenhill?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Can paella feel formal?
It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on how it is served.
Will there be enough food?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.
Do you cater for suppliers?
Yes, include them in your numbers. Let us know when they need feeding.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Should we have more than one paella?
Typically two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
What if the weather’s bad?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.
