Catering for every guest

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Provide shade and seats outdoors
  • Find out what paperwork the venue needs
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking

We arrive on time and follow your site rules.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

DIY paella versus live catering

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Before you choose a spot

Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:

  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

Gallows Corner is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

The process

When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. In Gallows Corner, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.

  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 pack down and leave the space tidy.

How to prepare

FAQs for Gallows Corner

What about parking in Gallows Corner?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will plan unloading around it.

Can you cook in Raphael Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

Do you do Christmas parties?

With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

How quickly can you serve a big group?

Yes. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.

How does payment work for businesses?

Let us know your company’s process, and we will talk you through it.

Do you offer halal options?

Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.
