How our corporate paella catering works in Chegworth
Summer parties, lunches, team days and client events are all on our list, at offices, hired venues and outdoor spaces. We’re frequently asked to cater team-building days and charity days, serving Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and vegan and vegetarian paella.
For rural venues near Chegworth, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before you book.

DIY paella versus live catering
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.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
The process
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. In Chegworth, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
