Corporate paella catering in Greatham, made fresh on the day
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it is ready, a queue moves fast because it is served straight from the pan. We’re frequently asked to cater product launches and open days and charity and fundraising events, serving bowl food, paella lunches and canapé tapas.
For rural venues near Greatham, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where we cook. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How we price corporate paella catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many courses
- Whether you need crockery
- How long we are needed on site
- The number of people
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Which courses you have in mind
- A photo of the space, if you can
- The date and rough timings
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
