Live paella or other catering?

Buffet food sits out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.

What you get with us

  • Events in Great Stonar and across Kent
  • Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • A clear, itemised quote

Diets, allergies and planning

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Ask staff about diets in advance
  • Give us diet totals and allergy details
  • Have water and soft drinks available
  • Get facilities approval early

We arrive on time and follow your site rules, including sign-in and parking.

Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.

Planning the cooking area

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

  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Great Stonar

Is Great Stonar 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.

What about events near the coast?

Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.

Can you provide dessert?

We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.

Can you cook at our office?

Often, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will confirm with facilities.

Should we have more than one paella?

Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will suggest a split based on your guests.

Can you invoice the company?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

What does corporate paella catering cost?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a price.

What areas do you cover?

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How many guests are eating
  • The paellas you choose
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert

Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you can choose exactly what you need.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Expected numbers
  • The date and time of the event
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Diets and allergies you know about

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just fill in our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
