What else we do in Upper Edmonton
The process
Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. In Upper Edmonton, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is normally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:50pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
- Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
- We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
- We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
Preparing for the day

- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Related guides
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Questions from Upper Edmonton
Could we have live paella in Pymmes Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary'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 you serve drinks?
Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
Will there be enough food?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Do you offer tastings?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain the options.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, in front of your guests.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

One- and two-bite tapas on boards, ideal for the drinks reception.

Space, weather and the venue
We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
Upper Edmonton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
