Corporate paella catering for Falmer events

Corporate paella catering in Falmer, made fresh on the day

Work events need fast, inclusive food that keeps people talking. Live paella ticks every box. Popular choices include vegan and vegetarian paella, paella lunches and bowl food, and we are regularly asked to cater conference lunches and client and customer events.

For rural venues near Falmer, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Tell us about access. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

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. After-work summer parties in Falmer have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Getting ready for the day

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

How to compare caterers

Live paella or other catering?

Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella is served fast from the pan. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.

Why Falmer hosts choose us

  • Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
