About our corporate paella catering in East Hanney
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. Typical bookings include summer parties for staff and fundraisers, with vegan and vegetarian paella, Spanish desserts and canapé tapas.
At country venues around East Hanney, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Tell us about access. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.

How the day 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 the timing is planned around your event. After-work summer parties in East Hanney have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.

How we price corporate paella catering
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Whether you need crockery
- Parking and unloading
- How long we are needed on site
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Details that help
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- The date and rough timings
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, use our quote form.
DIY paella versus live catering
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Live paella or other catering?
Food vans can create long queues. Paella is served fast from the pan. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
