About our corporate paella catering in Emmer Green
Canapés, bowl food and desserts can be added, and we’ll work with your venue on access, timings and paperwork. We cook vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and canapé tapas, and we’re regularly asked to cater charity and fundraising events and training days and conferences.
Work events near Emmer Green might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. Live paella works in all of them. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Food vans can create long queues. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
Why book with us
- Catering across Reading, including Emmer Green
- Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks

Questions from Emmer Green
What’s the nearest station to Emmer Green for guests?
The closest is Reading station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
Is Emmer Green close to London?
About 37 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will suggest a split based on your guests.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
It is ideal for that. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Can you invoice the company?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
Do you come to Emmer Green?
We do. We cook at events in Emmer Green and across Reading. Send us your date to check availability.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
