Corporate paella catering in Acton Green, made fresh on the day

Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and does not stop people talking. Live paella does all three. On the menu are vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and Spanish desserts, and we are often booked for product launches and open days and conference lunches.

For offices in and around Acton Green, the cooking spot is normally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan loading early. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book: the menu, the staff and any extras.

Planning the cooking area

We will be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:

  • The venue’s permission for live cooking
  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • Facilities approval and any site rules

Acton Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

What corporate paella catering costs

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • How many guests are eating
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Starters, canapés and desserts

Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We’ll send you a quote.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • A picture of the space, if you can
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • The address or venue name
  • The date and time of the event

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Is live paella right for your work event?

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Why book with us

  • Sangria and bar staff available
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • Real theatre, not just catering
  • Live cooking, not reheated food

Step by step

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is still served fresh. For a Christmas party in Acton Green, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.
