How our corporate paella catering works in Boughton Monchelsea
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. Whether it’s charity days and training days and conferences, we’ll put together a menu of canapé tapas, vegan and vegetarian paella and Spanish desserts.
At country venues around Boughton Monchelsea, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and access to the venue
