Corporate paella catering for Richmond events
Corporate paella catering for your work event in Richmond
Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and does not stop people talking. Live paella does all three. Typical bookings include christmas parties and conferences and training days, serving bowl food, Spanish desserts and paella lunches.
In Richmond, work lunches are frequently short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Questions from Richmond
Can you cook in Terrace and Buccleuch Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Is parking a problem for events in Richmond?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, if the building allows it.
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.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
What does corporate paella catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
What about pudding?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Tell us how long the food break is
Staff can circulate with canapés or bowls, so guests can network while they eat.

The process
Your timings come first. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is still served fresh. In Richmond, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Plan cover in case of rain
