Corporate paella catering in Kidbrooke, cooked live
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it’s ready, a queue moves fast because it is served straight from the pan. For team-building days and client hospitality, we can cook paella lunches, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts and more.
In Kidbrooke, work lunches are often short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served the moment it is ready.

Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Step by step
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. In Kidbrooke, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many courses
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- The paellas you choose
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We’ll send you a quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space, if you can

Questions from Kidbrooke
Could we have live paella in Eltham Common?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Is parking a problem for events in Kidbrooke?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will plan unloading around it.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Is halal food available?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
What space do you need to cook?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Can you cook in the rain?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.
Can we pay by invoice?
We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.
Do you cover Kidbrooke?
