Corporate paella catering in Hackney Marshes, made fresh on the day
Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and does not stop people talking. Live paella does all three. We are frequently asked to cater conference lunches and summer parties for staff, with bowl food, Spanish desserts and paella lunches.
In Hackney Marshes, work lunches are often short, so we plan for fast service. Let us know about access and loading. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, each in a separate pan.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Sandwich platters are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Larger events typically cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Live cooking, not reheated food
- Events in Hackney Marshes and across Greater London
- Sangria and bar staff available

What we need at the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
As a London location, Hackney Marshes is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
