Your questions about corporate paella catering in Bladon
How far is Bladon from London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
What’s the nearest station to Bladon for guests?
Hanborough station, about 1 mile west of the centre.
Can you cook at our office?
Frequently, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will check with your facilities team.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.
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 serve a large team in a lunch break?
That is one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Do you cook inside?
Generally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
How the day works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. In Bladon, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
How to prepare
- Check the venue allows live cooking
- Give us a contact for the day
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

For event organisers in Bladon
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
