Jarvis Brook questions
Is Jarvis Brook close to London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Jarvis Brook?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Can you cook indoors?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
Do you cater for young children?
Of course. A simple chicken paella is usually popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.
How long do you need on site?
We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.
How we price corporate paella catering
Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:
- Whether you need crockery
- The number of people
- How long we are needed on site
- Distance and access to the venue
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and rough timings
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and you will get a menu idea and a price. Just fill in our quote form.
For event organisers in Jarvis Brook
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Food vans can create long queues. Paella is served fast from the pan. Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We will send you a quote.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
