How our corporate paella catering works in Grimsbury

Summer parties, lunches, team days and client events are all on our list, at offices, hired venues and outdoor spaces. Popular choices include paella lunches, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts, and we’re regularly asked to cater christmas and end-of-year parties and away days and office lunches.

Teams near Grimsbury often go for an outdoor lunch or summer party. Tell us about the site and access. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

The menu, dish by dish

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A real main for vegetarians and vegans, not an afterthought.

Canapé tapas

Bite-sized tapas carried round by staff.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

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.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Grimsbury

How far is Grimsbury from London?

About 65 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can you cook in People's Park?

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

Can you serve drinks?

We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.

How soon do we need to book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Can you provide dessert?

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.

Can you cook in the rain?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will make a plan B with you.

How do you work out quantities?

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.

Organising for someone else?

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.

Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether live paella will work.

How it works

Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell typically draws people over. In Grimsbury, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

Why live cooking beats a buffet

A barbecue cooks in batches and needs a lot of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Why choose Love Paella in Grimsbury

  • Everything cooked fresh at your event
  • Fast service from the pan
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • Sangria and bar staff available

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • Facilities approval and any site rules
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Popular choices

  • Canapé tapas
  • Paella lunches
  • Desserts
