How our corporate paella catering works in Bloomsbury
At client events, presentation counts: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. We are frequently asked to cater client hospitality and summer staff parties, with vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and paella lunches.
Around Bloomsbury, office events tend to use courtyards, terraces and car parks. Get facilities’ approval and plan loading early. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan and clearly labelled.

Planning a team event in Bloomsbury
Bloomsbury is about 1 mile north-east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. For a work event in Bloomsbury, we can cook in gardens, marquees, barns, courtyards and offices in and around Bloomsbury. We cook in all 764 towns and villages across Greater London.
Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: London Euston station is about 0.6 miles away. Historic houses near Bloomsbury include Dr Johnson's House (0.9 miles south-east) and Benjamin Franklin House (1.1 miles south). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they normally set strict rules for caterers.
We cater work events across NW1W, W1T and NW1 and the streets around it. Local streets include Drury Lane, Euston Road and Duke's Road; a work event at home on any of them works well with live paella. You will find Bloomsbury on the A401 and A501, so it’s easy for us to reach with the van and pans. Close by, we cover work events in St Pancras (1 mile north-east), Euston (1 mile north-west), Kings Cross (1 mile north), Holborn (1 mile east) and Fitzrovia (1 mile west). Further out, we also cater in Kensington (4 miles south-west), Walthamstow (6 miles north-east), Hampstead (3 miles north-west), Ruislip (13 miles west), Brompton (3 miles south-west) and Stockwell (4 miles south).
Other landmarks nearby include Pilsudski Institute of London (under half a mile north-west) and Montfichet's Tower (1.2 miles south-east). The countryside around Bloomsbury includes Barnsbury Wood and Ludgate Hill.

How the day works
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you’re free to enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. After-work summer parties in Bloomsbury have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- We check the date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.

Planners, venues and businesses
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.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Your questions about corporate paella catering in Bloomsbury
Is parking a problem for events in Bloomsbury?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Could we have live paella in Lincoln's Inn Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
That’s one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.
How long do you need on site?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
Do you work in winter?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. December dates go fast.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Paella compared with other options
Buffet food sits out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.
Why us?
- Live cooking, not reheated food
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
- Drinks service on request

Planning the cooking area
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
Bloomsbury is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.
