About our corporate paella catering in Belbins
We cater summer parties, office lunches, team days, open days and client events. On the menu are paella lunches, bowl food and Spanish desserts, and we are regularly asked to cater open days and launches and christmas parties.
An away day near Belbins is a good fit for live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.
How it works
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. After-work summer parties in Belbins have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We check the date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
