How our corporate paella catering works in Hampstead
Guests gather round to watch it cook, and once it’s ready, a queue moves fast because it’s served straight from the pan. Typical bookings include training days and conferences and summer staff parties, serving paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas.
For offices in and around Hampstead, the cooking spot is normally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan loading early. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.

FAQs for Hampstead
What about parking in Hampstead?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will plan unloading around it.
What’s the nearest station to Hampstead for guests?
Finchley Road & Frognal station, in Hampstead itself.
Can you cook in the rain?
We need a covered spot, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Do you do Christmas parties?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. Book early for December.
How much does corporate paella catering cost in Hampstead?
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a price.
How many different paellas?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
How the day works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you are free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. After-work summer parties in Hampstead have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

Planning help
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What we need at the venue
We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
Hampstead is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
