Corporate paella catering for Hammer Bottom events
How our corporate paella catering works in Hammer Bottom
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. Popular choices include Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and bowl food, and we are regularly asked to cater away days and office lunches and summer parties for staff.
At country venues around Hammer Bottom, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan.
Space, weather and the venue
If a space is not suitable, we’ll tell you. The main points are:
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Somewhere close to park and unload
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Diets, allergies and planning
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Ask staff about diets in advance
We leave the space as we found it.
Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

Questions from Hammer Bottom
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Hammer Bottom?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
That’s one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.
Is the paella gluten-free?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will talk it through before the day.
Do you cater in Hammer Bottom?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Hammer Bottom. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
Can you cater a winter event?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. Book early for December.
Should I cook it myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
How it works
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. For a Christmas party in Hammer Bottom, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us where to park and unload
