Choosing a paella caterer

About our corporate paella catering in Limehouse

For offices in and around Limehouse, the cooking spot is generally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan loading early.

Questions from Limehouse

Which station should guests use for Limehouse?

Limehouse has its own station: Limehouse station.

What about parking in Limehouse?

It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will plan unloading around it.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.

Do you cook it at the event?

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

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

What documents can you provide?

Tell us what your venue or facilities team needs, and we’ll send what you need.

Do you do desserts?

Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Let us know if you’d like one in your enquiry.

Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we’ll quote for the rest.

For planners, venues and organisers

Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we will tell you honestly whether live paella will work.

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

The process

The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. December events in Limehouse are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Prices and what affects them

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Guest numbers
  • How many courses
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

  • The date and time of the event
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Diets and allergies you know about
