Live corporate paella catering in Roughway
How the day works
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. In Roughway, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Leave space around the cooking area
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

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.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
Staff can circulate with canapés or bowls.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
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.
