What corporate paella catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Your choice of paellas
- Guest numbers
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

About our corporate paella catering in Laleham
We plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so even a big team eats quickly. We cook vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and bowl food, and typical bookings are for summer staff parties and team-building events.
For businesses around Laleham, an outdoor team lunch or summer party is easy to arrange with live paella. Tell us about the site and access. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.
Organising a club, school or community event in Laleham? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
