Corporate paella catering for Holloway Down events

Step by step

On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. December events in Holloway Down are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

How to prepare

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Planning for every diet

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Share the timings for food
  • Give us diet totals and allergy details
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adapt.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

Where we can cook in Holloway Down

Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • Level ground for the pans and burners

As a London location, Holloway Down is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella is served fast from the pan. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Why book with us

  • Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Fast service from the pan
