Corporate paella catering for Covent Garden events
Your questions about corporate paella catering in Covent Garden
What about parking in Covent Garden?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.
What’s the nearest station to Covent Garden for guests?
Covent Garden has its own station: London Charing Cross station.
How many different paellas?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will help you decide the split.
Do you cater at business parks?
Often, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will confirm with facilities.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote.
Can you bring crockery?
We can. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.
What does corporate paella catering cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we will send a quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Corporate paella catering in Covent Garden, made fresh on the day
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is the point of a team event. On the menu are vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for team-building events and launches and open days.
In Covent Garden, work lunches are often short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose, with no surprises on the day.

About the dishes
Paella lunches
Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.
Vegan and vegetarian pans
Cooked separately with their own stock.
Should I cook it myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Is live paella right for your work event?
For catering that’s part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. 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. Your quote spells it all out.

- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
