Corporate paella catering for Curbridge events

Paella compared with other options

A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Larger events typically cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What you get with us

  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Served hot, straight from the pan
  • A clear, itemised quote
  • Live cooking, not reheated food

How our corporate paella catering works in Curbridge

Work events need fast, inclusive food that keeps people talking. Live paella does all three. Whether it is end-of-year celebrations and conference lunches, we’ll put together a menu of bowl food, paella lunches and vegan and vegetarian paella for your guests.

Team away days in the countryside around Curbridge suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Waiting and bar staff
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Travel, parking and access
  • How many courses

There’s 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.

What to tell us

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • The courses you’d like
  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and rough timings

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

How it works

Here’s how the day normally runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan when you’re ready to eat. For a Christmas party in Curbridge, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:30pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Tell us where to park and unload

Questions from Curbridge

How far is Curbridge from London?

Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London.

Do you come out to small places like Curbridge?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

Can you cook indoors?

Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.

Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

What about pudding?

Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.

How does payment work for businesses?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. A simple chicken paella is usually popular with children. Include children in your numbers.

We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Approval from your facilities team or building manager
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

DIY paella versus live catering

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
