Live corporate paella catering in Church Town
About our corporate paella catering in Church Town
A paella station turns lunch into part of the event, not just a break from it. We cook canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and bowl food, and we are frequently booked for open days and launches and away days and office lunches.
An away day near Church Town is a good fit for live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose.
Live paella or other catering?
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella just needs a suitable spot. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

What corporate paella catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Whether you need crockery
- The paellas you choose
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- The number of people
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

FAQs for Church Town
What’s the nearest station to Church Town for guests?
The closest is Godstone station, roughly 2 miles away.
Is Church Town too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you cook inside?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
Do you work in winter?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. Book early for December.
Do you cater for young children?
Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan for them.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Often, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will confirm with facilities.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Should I cook it myself?
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 enjoy the party, let us cook.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
