Liss Forest questions
How far is Liss Forest from London?
Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Liss Forest too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Can you serve drinks?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
How long does the paella take?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
It’s ideal for that. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes, always. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, where your guests can watch.
Can you cater a winter event?
Yes, if there’s a covered, ventilated spot. December dates go fast.

About our corporate paella catering in Liss Forest
Guests gather round to watch it cook, and service from the pan keeps queues short. Whether it’s conferences and training days and office lunches and away days, we’ll put together a menu of bowl food, paella lunches and vegan and vegetarian paella and more.
Team away days in the countryside around Liss Forest suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: the menu, the staff and any extras.
Should I cook it myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

The process
The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. In Liss Forest, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- We check the date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Give us a contact for the day
How to get a price
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.
