Corporate paella catering in Kiddington, cooked live

Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. Whether it is team-building days and client hospitality, we can cook bowl food, Spanish desserts and vegan and vegetarian paella and more.

At country venues around Kiddington, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

  • Desserts

  • Canapé tapas
  • Drinks service

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Larger events usually cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why book with us

  • Events in Kiddington and across Oxfordshire
  • Everything cooked fresh at your event
  • Served hot, straight from the pan
  • Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests

Organising for someone else?

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Events we cater in Kiddington

Nobody is left out: guests who are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal all get a proper hot meal.

How to compare caterers

DIY paella versus live catering

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

Common questions in Kiddington

Is Kiddington close to London?

Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Is Kiddington too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

How much paella per person?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Let us know about any other food. See how much paella per person.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Do you come to Kiddington?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Kiddington is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Is the paella cooked on site?

Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.

Where do you cater?

We cater across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.

How does payment work for businesses?

We will explain booking and payment when you enquire.

How we price corporate paella catering

There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • Whether you need crockery
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Parking and unloading
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood

Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: staff, crockery, sides, travel and VAT. We itemise ours.

Getting an accurate quote

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • The address or venue name
  • A picture of the space, if you can

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

The process

When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell typically draws people over. For a Christmas party in Kiddington, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:30pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
  • Let us know the timings for the day

How to get a price
