Choosing a paella caterer

Planners, venues and businesses

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Radclive questions

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St John?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

How far is Radclive from London?

Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Is halal food available?

We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

Do you cook inside?

Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.

How long does the paella take?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.

What wedding paella catering costs

We’ll give you a clear, itemised quote. What affects it most:

  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • How many guests are eating
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware

The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

What we need to know

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can use our quote form.

How it works

We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your wedding. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. Golden-hour photos in Radclive at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 9:00pm, and in late September about 7:10pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
  2. We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
  5. We pack down our cooking area, with staff staying as long as agreed.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Ensure we can park close by to unload

Desserts

To finish: Spanish desserts or your own cake.

Evening paella

Evening paella is hot, filling and fun, especially after a few hours on the dance floor.

Should I cook it myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
  • Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
