London work events in Middle Park often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan for fast service. Tell us about building access and loading. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated, and served the moment it’s ready.

What happens on the day

Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. For a Christmas party in Middle Park, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot

Organising for someone else?

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.

Middle Park questions

Could we have live paella in Horn Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

Which station should guests use for Middle Park?

Mottingham station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.

Do you provide drinks?

Sangria can be added, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.

What does corporate paella catering cost?

Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a price.

Will there be enough food?

Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.

What if the weather’s bad?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will make a plan B with you.

Space, weather and the venue

Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls

Middle Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

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