About our corporate paella catering in Firgo
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is exactly what a team event is for. For client hospitality and office lunches and away days, we will put together a menu of paella lunches, Spanish desserts and vegan and vegetarian paella.
At country venues around Firgo, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Questions from Firgo
Which station should guests use for Firgo?
Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, about 2.4 miles north of the centre.
Is Firgo close to London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
Can the team help cook?
Many teams enjoy watching and learning how paella is made. Talk to us about what you have in mind.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Is the paella gluten-free?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
How much is live paella catering?
We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a price.
Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

What affects the price in Firgo
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Timings and hours
- The number of people
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How many courses
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- What the venue already provides
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- The courses you’d like
We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
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. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
