Your questions about corporate paella catering in Lambourn

Is Lambourn close to London?

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

Can you cook at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Can you provide dessert?

We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

How quickly can you serve a big group?

Yes. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.

Can you bring crockery?

Yes, if you need them. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.

What space do you need to cook?

Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

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

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through it.

Should I cook it myself?

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.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
