How our corporate paella catering works in Cheam

We cater summer parties, office lunches, team days, open days and client events. Popular choices include paella lunches, Spanish desserts and bowl food, and we are often booked for summer staff parties and client hospitality.

In Cheam, work lunches are frequently short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Tell us about building access and loading. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

How to compare caterers

The process

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat. For a Christmas party in Cheam, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Cheam

Can you cook in Howell Hill?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

What’s the nearest station to Cheam for guests?

The closest is Cheam station, roughly 0.6 miles away.

Can you cook at our office?

Frequently, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will check with your facilities team.

Do you offer halal options?

We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

Do you cook it at the event?

Yes. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.

How does payment work for businesses?

We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.

Can the team help cook?

Ask us about it when you enquire, and we will discuss what’s possible at your venue.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

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. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

Catering for every guest

With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:

  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
  • Share the timings for food
  • Get facilities approval early
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies

Staff can circulate with canapés or bowls, so guests can network while they eat.
