How corporate paella catering works in West Sussex

Work events need fast, inclusive food that keeps people talking. Live paella ticks every box. We cook paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for launches and open days and end-of-year celebrations.

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

What’s near Crawley

Events here are often close to Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony, St Wilfrid's Catholic School and Tilgate Park, among other places. Also close by are The George Hotel (under half a mile north), Three Bridges Junior School (less than half a mile south-east) and St Francis of Assisi Catholic Primary School (under half a mile south-east). Crawley has its own railway station: Crawley station, handy for guests travelling by train. A little further out are Crawley Hospital (0.5 miles north-west) and County Mall (less than half a mile north-east). The countryside around Crawley includes Tilgate Lake.

Corporate events in West Sussex: access and venues

Work events across West Sussex are frequently in Crawley, Horsham and Worthing, at offices, business parks and hired venues, with team days at country venues further out. We agree access and timings with the site. Parts of West Sussex are within a few miles of the South Downs National Park and the High Weald National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles and cooking. 121 of the places we cover in West Sussex are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we often plan a sheltered cooking spot for the wind.

Crawley: For staff and clients coming by train, Crawley station is in Crawley itself. By road, Crawley is on or near the A23 and A264, which makes it easy for us to reach with the van and equipment. December events in Crawley are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

Prices and what affects them

We will give you a clear, itemised quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The length of service
  • Your choice of paellas
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Distance and access to the venue

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

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

Why live paella works

It brings teams together around the pans.

Big or small, live paella works well. Common bookings include:

  • Customer events
  • Conference lunches
  • Fundraisers
  • Launches and open days

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

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.

Before you choose a spot

The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We look for:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

Planning for every diet

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:

  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Share the timings for food
  • Have water and soft drinks available

The cooking area stays tidy, and clear it away afterwards.
