Live corporate paella catering in Aldwych
Aldwych for staff parties and team days
Aldwych is about 1 mile north-west of London, in Greater London. From the centre of Aldwych to the outskirts, corporate paella catering works the same way: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price. Aldwych is one of 764 places in Greater London where we cook.
For staff and clients coming by train, the nearest station is London Charing Cross station, about 0.5 miles south-west. By road, Aldwych is on or near the A4 and A301, which makes it easy for us to reach with the van and equipment.

Corporate paella catering in Aldwych, cooked live
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is exactly what a team event is for. On the menu are vegan and vegetarian paella, paella lunches and canapé tapas, and we are often booked for client and customer events and training days and conferences.
For offices in and around Aldwych, the cooking spot is generally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan loading early. You will know exactly what’s included before booking: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose, with no surprises on the day.

Working with your venue
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.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Think about shade and seating
- Share the timings for food
- Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
We serve at the agreed time, whether that is a lunch break or an evening party.
Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.
How it works
When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. December events in Aldwych are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Aldwych
What about parking in Aldwych?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will plan unloading around it.
What’s the nearest station to Aldwych for guests?
London Charing Cross station, about 0.5 miles south-west of the centre.
How much does corporate paella catering cost in Aldwych?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What paperwork do you have?
Send us the venue’s requirements.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
What space do you need to cook?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
How we price corporate paella catering
There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- The number of people
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- The courses you’d like
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space, if you can
It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.
Planning the cooking area
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
As a London location, Aldwych is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
