Corporate paella catering in Cannon Hill, made fresh on the day
Work events need fast, inclusive food that keeps people talking. Live paella does all three. We cook canapé tapas, bowl food and Spanish desserts, and typical bookings are for charity days and christmas and end-of-year parties.
London work events in Cannon Hill frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we plan for fast service. Tell us about building access and loading. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served the moment it’s ready.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
The cooking area stays tidy, and clear it away afterwards.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Cannon Hill
What about parking in Cannon Hill?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.
Could we have live paella in Cannon Hill Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
What happens if it rains?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Do you take everything away?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Cannon Hill.
Can we pay by invoice?
Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through it.
Live paella or other catering?
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs a lot of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
What you get with us
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
