Wedding paella catering in North Brixton, made fresh on the day
Timing is everything with paella: the rice needs about 20 minutes and is best served immediately. We time it around your speeches and photos. We cook evening paella, Spanish desserts and canapé tapas, and we’re regularly asked to cater spanish-themed and destination-style weddings and blessings and vow renewals.
London weddings around North Brixton often mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue or a family garden. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. In London, parking and loading need planning early. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, with each paella cooked in its own pan.

What else we do in North Brixton
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.
About the dishes
Canapé tapas
Canapés keep guests happy between the ceremony and the meal, without spoiling appetites.
Desserts
A sweet finish: Spanish desserts or your own cake.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
We clear our cooking area away afterwards; staff you’ve booked stay as agreed.
Canapé tapas with the drinks reception keep guests going during photos.

North Brixton: your questions answered
Can you cook in Max Roach Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Michael's Church?
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 the paella be cooked in a hall?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
How much paella per person?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.
Can we have a tasting?
Mention a tasting in your enquiry, and we’ll explain how it works.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you do canapés and evening food too?
Any part of the day, or all of it, from the drinks reception to the evening.
Where we can cook in North Brixton
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- An open-sided catering gazebo next to the marquee
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
North Brixton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
