How it works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it is served at its best. For a Christmas party in Oving, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
How to prepare
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather

Oving: your questions answered
Can you cook near the sea around Oving?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Is Oving close to London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.
Can you cook at our office?
Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will check with your facilities team.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
What about pudding?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Oving for staff parties and team days
Oving is about 3 miles east of Chichester, in West Sussex. Anywhere in PO20, we can cook for your guests. Oving is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we cook. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 26 miles away.
Central London is about 53 miles from Oving, so it is a practical spot for away days and team events. Nearby historic houses include Goodwood House (2.4 miles north). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they usually set strict rules for caterers. The coast is within about 5 miles, so a seafood pan goes down well at summer events.
