Corporate paella catering in Bow
Bow for staff parties and team days
Bow is about 1 mile south-east of Hackney, in Greater London. Whether your work event is in the middle of Bow or on the outskirts, corporate paella catering works the same way: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price. We cook in all 764 towns and villages across Greater London.
Historic houses near Bow include Sutton House (1.6 miles north-west) and Mansion House (2.9 miles south-west).

How our corporate paella catering works in Bow
Guests gather round to watch it cook, and once it is ready, a queue moves fast because it is served straight from the pan. For conferences and training days and open days and launches, we can cook bowl food, Spanish desserts and vegan and vegetarian paella and more.
In Bow, work lunches are often short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: the menu, the staff and any extras, with no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Bow
Which station should guests use for Bow?
Hackney Wick station, about 0.9 miles north of the centre.
What about parking in Bow?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.
Do you cook it at the event?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, serving it hot from the pan.
How does payment work for businesses?
We will explain booking and payment when you enquire.
Do you cater at business parks?
Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We’ll check with your facilities team.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
That is one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.
Do you take everything away?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether you need crockery
- The number of people
- How many staff you need
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What to tell us
The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- What the venue already provides
- A photo of the space, if you can
- The venue or postcode
- Diets and allergies you know about
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, courses and extras. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Canapé tapas
Bite-sized tapas carried round by staff during receptions.
Paella lunches
Paella is a quick, hot lunch for a crowd, with every diet covered.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Buffet food sits out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. For a Christmas party in Bow, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
Ask for a quote
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote.

For event organisers in Bow
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
What we need at the venue
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
As a London location, Bow is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.
