- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The courses you’d like

Should I cook it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.
How the day works
Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. When service is finished, we pack down. At midsummer, sunset in Kingston Bagpuize is about 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
- We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
How to prepare
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Leave space around the cooking area

Kingston Bagpuize: your questions answered
Is Kingston Bagpuize close to London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?
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 typically elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Can we try the food first?
Mention a tasting in your enquiry, and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you cater for young children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.
How much space do you need?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a photo.
Who clears up?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
