Your questions about corporate paella catering in Kentish Town

Which station should guests use for Kentish Town?

Kentish Town has its own station: Kentish Town West station.

Can you cook in Primrose Hill?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

Can you do a team-building activity?

Mention it in your enquiry, and we’ll see what works.

How many paellas should we have?

Normally two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.

Where do you cater?

We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

How it works

The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer parties in Kentish Town have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot

Space, weather and the venue

We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • The venue’s permission for live cooking

Kentish Town is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

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

Menu ideas

  • Canapé tapas
  • Bowl food
  • Vegan & vegetarian pans
  • Paella lunches

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear and itemised. The main things that affect it are:

  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • How many staff you need
  • Parking and unloading
  • The number of people

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • Where the event is
  • What the venue already provides

Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

Should I cook it myself?

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
