Corporate paella catering for your work event in Brockenhurst
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and service from the pan keeps queues short. We cook vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts, and we are frequently booked for team lunches and charity and fundraising events.
Around Brockenhurst, team days can be at rural venues or the office. Paella suits all of them. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Have water and soft drinks available
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Give us diet totals and allergy details
We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.
Canapés for drinks receptions.

Questions from Brockenhurst
Can you cook near the sea around Brockenhurst?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
What’s the nearest station to Brockenhurst for guests?
Brockenhurst has its own station: Brockenhurst station.
Do you do starters?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Do you cater for young children?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.
Can staff get involved?
Teams often enjoy watching and asking questions. Tell us what you’d like.
How much space do you need?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Can you cater a winter event?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. Hot paella in winter is popular.
What corporate paella catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many guests are eating
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Waiting and bar staff
- How many courses
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The courses you’d like
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can fill in our quote form.
Space, weather and the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Facilities approval and any site rules

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
How it works
The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. In Brockenhurst, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
