Corporate paella catering for your work event in Crockerhill
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is exactly what a team event is for. We’re frequently asked to cater end-of-year celebrations and team-building days, serving vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and paella lunches.
An away day near Crockerhill is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose.

How we price corporate paella catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many staff you need
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- The number of people
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Crockerhill
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Is Crockerhill too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you send documents to our venue?
Let us know what’s required, and we’ll send what you need.
What do you need at the venue?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Can staff get involved?
Mention it in your enquiry, and we’ll see what works.
Do you do starters?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
