Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
About our corporate paella catering in Hale
At client events, presentation counts: staff-served canapés and paella bowls look professional. Popular choices include paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and we’re often booked for summer staff parties and client and customer events.
For rural venues near Hale, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Questions from Hale
Do you come out to small places like Hale?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

How it works
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. After-work summer parties in Hale have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We clear our area and leave it clean.
How to prepare
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
