Corporate paella catering for Fernham events

Corporate paella catering in Fernham, made fresh on the day

At client events, presentation counts: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. Popular choices include Spanish desserts, bowl food and vegan and vegetarian paella, and typical bookings are for team-building days and office lunches and away days.

Team away days in the countryside around Fernham suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and a queue moves quickly.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

The space is left clean and tidy.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

How far is Fernham from London?

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?

That is one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.

The process

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Guests usually gather round to watch while it cooks. In Fernham, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us where to park and unload
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Give us a contact for the day
