Live paella makes lunch an activity, not just a break from it. On the menu are vegan and vegetarian paella, paella lunches and Spanish desserts, and we are often booked for christmas and end-of-year parties and team lunches.
Teams near Oxted frequently go for an outdoor lunch or summer party. Let us know about the site. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

Hurst Green station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?

We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

We will explain booking and payment when you enquire.
What space do you need to cook?
Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you cook indoors?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
How we price corporate paella catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- The length of service
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A photo of the space, if you can
- Anything your venue supplies
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The date and rough timings
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed before you book.
