Corporate paella catering for your work event in Hernhill
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is exactly what a team event is for. We are frequently asked to cater team-building events and conferences and training days, with paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and Spanish desserts.
Team away days in the countryside around Hernhill suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. We serve straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it is ready.
For planners, venues and organisers
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.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Share the timings for food
The cooking area stays tidy.
Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.
The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and cook and serve without fuss. For a Christmas party in Hernhill, it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook

What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Facilities approval and any site rules
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we offer
- Desserts
- Canapé tapas
- Bowl food
- Paella lunches
- Vegan & vegetarian pans
- Drinks service
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
The menu, dish by dish
Paella lunches
A choice of paellas, quick to serve to a big team.

A real main for vegetarians and vegans, not an afterthought.

Common questions in Hernhill
Is Hernhill close to London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cook near the sea around Hernhill?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Do you do desserts?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.
What space do you need to cook?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, in front of your guests.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
That is one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Can you cater a winter event?
With the right covered space, yes. Hot paella in winter is popular.
