Corporate paella catering for Cranford events

How our corporate paella catering works in Cranford

For client events, presentation matters: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. Typical bookings include company summer parties and team-building events, with bowl food, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches.

In Cranford, work lunches are frequently short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Tell us about building access and loading. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

How to compare caterers

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

About the dishes

Canapé tapas

One-bite tapas served by staff.

Paella lunches

Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.

What happens on the day

Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. In Cranford, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
