Your questions about corporate paella catering in Lessness Heath

Could we have live paella in Lesnes Abbey Woods?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

Is parking a problem for events in Lessness Heath?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.

Can you bring crockery?

If you need them, yes. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

How quickly can you serve a big group?

It’s ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.

Can you serve drinks?

Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Can you invoice the company?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To get it right:

  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
  • Get facilities approval early

We serve at the agreed time, lunchtime or evening.

How it works

Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. After-work summer parties in Lessness Heath have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

Space, weather and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Approval from your facilities team or building manager
  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed

As a London location, Lessness Heath is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

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