Should I cook it myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

Perfect for your work event in Mill Lane

It gets colleagues talking around the pans.

Questions from Mill Lane

What’s the nearest station to Mill Lane for guests?

The closest is Winchfield station, roughly 3 miles away.

Is Mill Lane 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.

Should we have more than one paella?

Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.

Do you provide drinks?

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

Can staff get involved?

Mention it in your enquiry, and we will discuss what’s possible at your venue.

What documents can you provide?

Send us the venue’s requirements.

Is the paella cooked on site?

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

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan for them.

Before you choose a spot

Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:

  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

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

What corporate paella catering costs

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • How many staff you need
  • The paellas you choose
  • The number of people
  • Parking and unloading

The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What we need to know

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • The date and time of the event
  • The courses you’d like
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Diets and allergies you know about

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

The process

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it is served at its best. For a Christmas party in Mill Lane, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Let us know the timings for the day
