How our corporate paella catering works in Horton
Live paella makes lunch an activity. We cook bowl food, canapé tapas and paella lunches, and typical bookings are for christmas and end-of-year parties and fundraisers.
At country venues around Horton, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
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.
How the day works
When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. In Horton, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

Common questions in Horton
Do you come out to small places like Horton?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Could we have live paella in Horton Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan for them.
What space do you need to cook?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
We can. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Live paella or other catering?
Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella is served hot as soon as it is ready. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.
