Live corporate paella catering in High Halden
How our corporate paella catering works in High Halden
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and service from the pan keeps queues short. We are often asked to cater company summer parties and team lunches, with vegan and vegetarian paella, Spanish desserts and paella lunches.
Team away days in the countryside around High Halden suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Get facilities approval early
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
Service is timed to your schedule, whether that is a lunch break or an evening party.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.

Paella compared with other options
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
- Live cooking, not reheated food
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts

Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
What affects the price in High Halden
Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:
- The length of service
- Your choice of paellas
- Waiting and bar staff
- Travel, parking and access
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- A picture of the space, if you can
