Corporate paella catering in Old Romney
How our corporate paella catering works in Old Romney
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. Typical bookings include summer parties for staff and team-building events, serving canapé tapas, bowl food and Spanish desserts.
Team away days in the countryside around Old Romney suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.
Live paella or other catering?
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella pans serve many people quickly. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
Why us?

Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
How the day works
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell usually draws people over. For a Christmas party in Old Romney, it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
How to prepare
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three covers most guests. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
Is the paella gluten-free?

Yes. A simple chicken paella is usually popular with children. Include children in your numbers.

We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is 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.
