About our corporate paella catering in Irons Bottom
Work events need fast, inclusive food that keeps people talking. Live paella does all three. Typical bookings include end-of-year celebrations and product launches and open days, with canapé tapas, bowl food and vegan and vegetarian paella.
For rural venues near Irons Bottom, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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.
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’ll do the cooking.
Where we can cook in Irons Bottom
Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Level ground for the pans and burners

What corporate paella catering costs
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Whether you need crockery
- The paellas you choose
- Timings and hours
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your work event, and we will put together a menu and price.

How the day works
When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell normally draws people over. In Irons Bottom, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- We check the date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
