A closer look at the menu

Canapé tapas

Canapés keep guests happy between the ceremony and the meal, without spoiling appetites.

Evening paella

Evening paella is hot, filling and fun.

Should I cook it myself?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Before you choose a spot

We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:

  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

West Twyford is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Live paella or other catering?

Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Separate paella pans cover every diet. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

FAQs for West Twyford

Which station should guests use for West Twyford?

The closest is Stonebridge Park station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Could we have live paella in St. Raphael's Edible Garden?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

Can you serve drinks?

Sangria can be added, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

Can you cater for children?

Of course. A simple chicken paella is usually popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.

When do you arrive?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.

Can paella feel formal?

With the right presentation, it feels special: canapés, table tapas, good crockery and staff serving the tables.

What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. In West Twyford, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is generally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
  2. We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
  3. Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
  4. On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
  5. Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Have a level space ready for the pans

Dietary needs and planning tips

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:

  • Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
  • Introduce us to your venue coordinator
  • Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards

We clear our cooking area away afterwards; any staff stay as long as agreed.

Finish with Spanish desserts or your cake.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Whether you need crockery
  • The paellas you choose
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • The number of people

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • A photo of the space, if you can
  • The address or venue name
  • Anything your venue supplies

Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
