At country venues around Flete, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. We plan the timings around your day, so the paella is ready when you want to eat.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving. In Flete, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Flete
Is Flete too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Which station should guests use for Flete?
Margate station, about 1.5 miles north of the centre.
Is the paella cooked on site?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.
Can we pay by invoice?
We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.
Should we have more than one paella?
Usually two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Can you cater a winter event?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
How long do you need on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
What else we do in Flete
Space, weather and the venue
If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Is live paella right for your work event?
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers diets with separate pans. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
