Corporate paella catering in Norton, made fresh on the day
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. Popular choices include vegan and vegetarian paella, paella lunches and canapé tapas, and we’re regularly asked to cater summer parties for staff and team-building days.
At country venues around Norton, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

How we price corporate paella catering
We’ll give you a clear, itemised quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Travel, parking and access
- Timings and hours
- The paellas you choose
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What the venue already provides
Send us the date, your venue or PO20 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
How the day works
Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. When service is finished, we pack down. In Norton, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Norton for staff parties and team days
Norton is about 4 miles north of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex.

Norton is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 24 miles away.
Norton is about 52 miles from central London, which makes it handy for team days out of the city. Nearby historic houses include Goodwood House (2.9 miles north-west). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for caterers. With the South Downs National Park within about 8 miles, rural team days are easy to arrange. The coast is within about 5 miles, so a seafood pan goes down well at summer events.

DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

Norton: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Norton?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Can you cook near the sea around Norton?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
What about pudding?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Can you cater a winter event?
With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
What space do you need to cook?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.
Do you do starters?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
Space, weather and the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
