About our corporate paella catering in Lower Froyle
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is exactly what a team event is for. On the menu are Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and we are often booked for team lunches and company summer parties.
For rural venues near Lower Froyle, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Lower Froyle
Is Lower Froyle close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Lower Froyle too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What about pudding?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one in your enquiry.
When do you arrive?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
Do you do starters?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
Can you do sangria?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
DIY paella versus live catering
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
How we price corporate paella catering
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Waiting and bar staff
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- How long we’re needed on site
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Anything your venue supplies
- Your date and when you want to eat
- The courses you’d like
- Where the event is
Send us the date, your venue or GU34 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.
Live paella or other catering?
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why choose Love Paella in Lower Froyle
