About our corporate paella catering in New Charlton
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it’s ready, a queue moves fast because it’s served straight from the pan. Typical bookings include training days and conferences and launches and open days, serving bowl food, Spanish desserts and canapé tapas.
In New Charlton, work lunches are often short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Tell us about building access and loading. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
As a London location, New Charlton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Should I cook it myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
