Live corporate paella catering in New Romney
About our corporate paella catering in New Romney
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. For fundraisers and office lunches and away days, we will put together a menu of bowl food, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches.
For businesses around New Romney, an outdoor team lunch or summer party is easy to arrange with live paella. Tell us about the site and access. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, not reheated.
Before you choose a spot
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so the cooking area needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

- Travel, parking and access
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How long we’re needed on site

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Questions from New Romney
Is New Romney close to London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Could we have live paella in Romney Warren Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
It is ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Do you come to New Romney?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including New Romney and the rest of Kent. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Can you cook indoors?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
Can you cater a winter event?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. Book early for December.
How the day works
We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Guests generally gather round to watch while it cooks. In New Romney, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
