Live paella or other catering?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella just needs a suitable spot. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.

Events we cater in Oversland
It gets colleagues talking around the pans.
Whatever the occasion, paella can be the star of the food. We frequently cook for:
- Summer staff parties
- Away days and office lunches
- Launches and open days
- Team days
Oversland is about 48 miles from central London, which makes it handy for team days out of the city.
Before you book anyone
- The wet-weather plan
- VAT, if it applies
- When final numbers are due
- Whether crockery, cutlery and napkins are included
The process
Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. In Oversland, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Share the running order, including any speeches
