Corporate paella catering in Elvetham
Corporate paella catering in Elvetham, made fresh on the day
Summer parties, lunches, team days and client events are all on our list, at offices, hired venues and outdoor spaces. We are often asked to cater fundraisers and conferences and training days, serving canapé tapas, paella lunches and Spanish desserts.
Team away days in the countryside around Elvetham suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.
The process
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. In Elvetham, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
Ask for a quote
Send us the date, your venue or RG27 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just fill in our quote form.

Prices and what affects them
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many staff you need
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Distance and access to the venue
The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.
Details that help
The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The address or venue name
- The date and rough timings
- What the venue already provides
- A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote.

Common questions in Elvetham
Which station should guests use for Elvetham?
Fleet station, about 1.8 miles east of the centre.
Could we have live paella in The Views Meadow?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
What about pudding?
We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
