Choosing a paella caterer

Questions from Warfield

Is Warfield close to London?

About 28 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Is Warfield too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

How much space do you need?

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, including Bracknell Forest. Find your area.

How many paellas should we have?

Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.

What about pudding?

We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.

Is the paella gluten-free?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.

Working with your venue

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

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.

How the day works

When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. In Warfield, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is typically served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
  2. We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
  5. We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
