Live corporate paella catering in Calvert
About our corporate paella catering in Calvert
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. Popular choices include paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for team-building days and christmas parties.
An away day near Calvert is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book: the menu, the staff and any extras, with no surprises on the day.

- How many courses
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, sides, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

Why choose corporate paella catering in Calvert?
It gets colleagues talking.
Big or small, live paella works well. Typical bookings include:
- Conference lunches
- Team lunches
- Client and customer events
- Team days
Central London is about 48 miles from Calvert, which makes it handy for team days out of the city.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the team stays
- What happens if it rains
- What the caterer needs from your venue
- How each diet is kept separate
Should I cook it 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.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

How it works
When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. December events in Calvert are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
