How our corporate paella catering works in Byfleet
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. On the menu are Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for training days and conferences and summer staff parties.
Around Byfleet, team days can be at rural venues or the office. Live paella works in all of them. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
What corporate paella catering costs
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Whether you need crockery
- Parking and unloading
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you can choose exactly what you need.

The process
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. After-work summer parties in Byfleet have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Name one person we can ask on the day
