Corporate paella catering for your work event in Privett
Summer parties, lunches, team days and client events are all on our list, at offices, hired venues and outdoor spaces. We’re often asked to cater charity and fundraising events and team-building events, serving bowl food, paella lunches and Spanish desserts.
Team away days in the countryside around Privett suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
How the day works
Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. December events in Privett are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

Privett: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Privett?
Petersfield station, about 4.7 miles south-east of the centre.
Is Privett too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you come to Privett?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Privett is within our area. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
How many paellas should we have?
Normally two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
Who clears up?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Can you cook at our office?
Courtyards and terraces often work, if the building allows it.
How much paella per person?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Catering for every guest
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Share the timings for food
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
Service is timed to your schedule, whether that’s a lunch break or an evening party.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
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.
Live paella or other catering?
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.
What you get with us
- No hidden extras in your quote
- Hot food served quickly from the pan
- Drinks service on request
- Real theatre, not just catering

What corporate paella catering costs
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Timings and hours
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
