How our corporate paella catering works in Clatterford
Bowl food, canapé tapas and desserts can be added, and we work with your venue on access and paperwork. We cook vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and canapé tapas, and we are often booked for conference lunches and client hospitality.
At country venues around Clatterford, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Tell us about access. We serve straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once it is ready.

What corporate paella catering costs

- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Timings and hours
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.

The process
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. December events in Clatterford are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Is live paella right for your work event?
Food vans can create long queues. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

DIY paella versus live catering
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Common questions in Clatterford
Can you cook near the sea around Clatterford?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Is Clatterford too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Do you cater in Clatterford?
We do. Clatterford is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What if the weather’s bad?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Can the team help cook?
Mention it in your enquiry, and we will see what works.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes, on request. Let us know your halal numbers, and it is cooked separately.
