How the day works
The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. In Greenwich, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

FAQs for Greenwich
What’s the nearest station to Greenwich for guests?
Maze Hill station, in Greenwich itself.
Can you cook in Island Gardens?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
What do you need at the venue?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we’ll quote for the rest.
Is it really cooked live?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Can you do a team-building activity?
Many teams enjoy watching and learning how paella is made. Tell us what you’d like.
Do you cook inside?
Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
Greenwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What corporate paella catering costs
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Waiting and bar staff
- The length of service
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
What we need to know
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- Which courses you have in mind
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Is live paella right for your work event?
For catering that is part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed before booking.

DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against 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.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
- 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
