Corporate paella catering near Newdigate

How it works

Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. In Newdigate, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Getting a price

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Corporate paella catering in Newdigate, made fresh on the day

Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is the point of a team event. We cook Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and bowl food, and we are regularly asked to cater summer staff parties and launches and open days.

Team away days in the countryside around Newdigate suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. You will know exactly what’s included before booking: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose, with no surprises on the day.

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To get it right:

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Larger events normally cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why Newdigate hosts choose us

  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • Real theatre, not just catering
  • Every diet catered for, pan by pan
  • Live cooking, not reheated food
