Live corporate paella catering in Little London
DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Corporate paella catering for your work event in Little London
For client events, presentation matters: staff-served canapés and paella bowls look professional. For christmas and end-of-year parties and charity and fundraising events, we will put together a menu of vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts.
For rural venues near Little London, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

What corporate paella catering costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- How many guests are eating
- The length of service
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- How many staff you need
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.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where the event is
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

What happens on the day
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. For a Christmas party in Little London, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
