North Woolwich questions

Is parking a problem for events in North Woolwich?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.

Can you cook in Beckton District Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Yes, if you need them. Tell us what your venue provides and we’ll include the rest in the quote.

How long does the paella take?

We get there in good time to set up. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

What documents can you provide?

Tell us what your venue or facilities team needs, and we’ll send what you need.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.

Can you cook in the rain?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will make a plan B with you.

How much is live paella catering?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

A closer look at the menu

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A real main for vegetarians and vegans, not an afterthought.

Paella lunches

Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.

What we need at the venue

Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

  • Facilities approval and any site rules
  • The venue’s permission for live cooking
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

North Woolwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

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

Organising for someone else?

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

How we price corporate paella catering

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • How many staff you need
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • The length of service
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

What we need to know

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and rough timings
  • A picture of where we’d cook

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

How the day works

From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you’re free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. In North Woolwich, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
