Corporate paella catering for Heathfield events
Corporate paella catering in Heathfield, made fresh on the day
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it is ready, a queue moves fast because it’s served straight from the pan. We are often asked to cater company summer parties and client hospitality, serving Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and paella lunches.
For businesses around Heathfield, an outdoor team lunch or summer party is easy to arrange with live paella. Let us know about the site. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
The process
Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. December events in Heathfield are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

Heathfield: your questions answered
What about events near the coast?

What does corporate paella catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a price.

We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Can we pay by invoice?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.
Do you work in winter?
With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

We get there in good time to set up. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
What we need at the venue
If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think.

Is live paella right for your work event?
