Live corporate paella catering in Brookgreen
Planning for every diet
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
Staff can circulate with canapés or bowls, so guests can network while they eat.
Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.

Dishes our guests love
Bowl food
Bowls of paella, easy to eat standing.
Paella lunches
Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Live paella or other catering?
If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Catering across the Isle of Wight, including Brookgreen
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
- A clear, itemised quote
See Our prices page Or The cost guide.
Planning the cooking area
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
Brookgreen is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

What corporate paella catering costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Distance and access to the venue
- Guest numbers
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

What else we do in Brookgreen
Brookgreen: your questions answered
Can you cook near the sea around Brookgreen?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Do you come out to small places like Brookgreen?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What does corporate paella catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
How many different paellas?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
Yes. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
How long do you need on site?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
Can you do a team-building activity?
Many teams enjoy watching and learning how paella is made. Tell us what you’d like.
Is halal food available?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
How it works
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell typically draws people over. December events in Brookgreen are in the dark from about 4:05pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
How to get a price
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
