Corporate paella catering in Newchurch, cooked live

Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. We are frequently asked to cater fundraisers and client and customer events, with canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and paella lunches.

At country venues around Newchurch, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Tell us about access. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

  • Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
  • Somewhere close to park and unload

What corporate paella catering costs

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Your choice of paellas
  • The length of service
  • Guest numbers
  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • The address or venue name
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • The courses you’d like

How it works

  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.
