Corporate paella catering for your work event in Danaway
At client events, presentation counts: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. We’re often asked to cater summer staff parties and team-building events, with bowl food, vegan and vegetarian paella and Spanish desserts.
Team away days in the countryside around Danaway suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan and clearly labelled.
How it works
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. For a Christmas party in Danaway, it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

Space, weather and the venue
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Should I cook it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs a lot of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We’ll send you a quote.
