About our corporate paella catering in Emmington
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and service from the pan keeps queues short. We’re frequently asked to cater office lunches and away days and charity days, serving paella lunches, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts.
At country venues around Emmington, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated, and served the moment it is ready.

Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, 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.
Live paella or other catering?
Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Larger events typically cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Fast service from the pan
- No hidden extras in your quote

How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat. After-work summer parties in Emmington have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Have a level space ready for the pans
