Corporate paella catering in Conyer, made fresh on the day

Why live cooking beats a buffet
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella just needs a suitable spot. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Why Conyer hosts choose us
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
- A clear, itemised quote

How the day works
Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. When service is finished, we pack down. December events in Conyer are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
How to prepare
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.

Do you cook it at the event?

When should we book?
