How our corporate paella catering works in Cock Marling
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is the point of a team event. We cook Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches, and we’re regularly asked to cater launches and open days and office lunches and away days.
Team away days in the countryside around Cock Marling suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

What corporate paella catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- The number of people
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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 at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
