About our corporate paella catering in Farley Hill

A paella station turns lunch into part of the event, not just a break from it. On the menu are vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and bowl food, and we’re often booked for conferences and training days and charity days.

An away day near Farley Hill is a good fit for live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

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

Diets, allergies and planning

We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Find out what paperwork the venue needs
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form

The space is left clean and tidy.

Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.

How the day works

Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. In Farley Hill, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Preparing for the day

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
