For planners, venues and organisers

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Dishes our guests love

Canapé tapas

Bite-sized tapas carried round by staff during receptions.

Bowl food

Bowl food lets guests eat while they mingle.

Paella compared with other options

Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. 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 will suggest a menu.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. For a Christmas party in Frilford, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Have a level space ready for the pans

What corporate paella catering costs

Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:

  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • The paellas you choose
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • How long we are needed on site

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The courses you’d like
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Your date and when you want to eat

Send us the date, your venue or OX13 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.

Dietary needs and planning tips

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

  • Think about shade and seating
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Have water and soft drinks available
  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up

If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adapt.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

DIY paella versus live catering

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
  • Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
