How we price corporate paella catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many courses
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- The paellas you choose
- How many guests are eating
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Palmer's Green
How far is Palmer's Green from London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
How long does the paella take?
We get there in good time to set up. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
How does payment work for businesses?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll talk it through before the day.
Can you cook at our office?
Frequently, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will confirm with facilities.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask staff about diets in advance
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
We adapt if timings change.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s 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.
For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Live paella or other catering?
For catering that is part of the event, live paella stands out. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
