Hanover questions
Can you cook in Queen's Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of the Annunciation: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Brighton and Hove. See all areas.
What about supplier meals?
Just add them to your numbers. Let us know when they need feeding.
Do you offer halal options?
We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.
Can you cook in the rain?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Is paella smart enough for a wedding?
Served well, it feels generous and special: canapés, tapas, crockery and table service.

A closer look at the menu
Evening paella
Paella makes great evening food, especially after a few hours on the dance floor.
Table tapas
A tapas starter gets tables talking.
How it works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. In Hanover, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is usually served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
- We confirm everything with your venue.
- Guests watch the paella cook during the reception.
- We serve and clear our cooking area.
Getting ready for the day

What we need at the venue
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.
Paella compared with other options
Buffets can mean food sitting for a while. Paella goes straight from pan to plate when guests are ready. Larger events typically cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What affects the price in Hanover
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The number of people
- How many staff you need
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Where the event is
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll suggest a menu. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.
