Your questions about corporate paella catering in Catmore

Is Catmore too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Is Catmore close to London?

About 54 miles from central London.

What paperwork do you have?

Ask facilities for their list and pass it on.

Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?

That is one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

How does payment work for businesses?

We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.

Is the paella cooked on site?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.

Who clears up?

We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • How long we are needed on site
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • How many courses
  • Parking and unloading

Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: staff, crockery, sides, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.

What to tell us

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • What the venue already provides

It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send a clear, itemised quote.

12 questions to ask before booking

For event organisers in Catmore

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Catering for every guest

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Give us diet totals and allergy details
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Get facilities approval early

We leave the space as we found it.

Canapés for drinks receptions.

DIY paella versus live catering

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

The process

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and cook and serve without fuss. In Catmore, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

How to prepare

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather

Why choose live paella in Catmore?

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.

Why book with us

  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Fast service from the pan
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Live cooking, not reheated food

Take a look at Our pricing Or The cost guide.

What we need at the venue

If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • The venue’s permission for live cooking

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
