Should I cook it myself?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Sandford St Martin

How far is Sandford St Martin from London?

Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Sandford St Martin?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

How much paella per person?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.

Do you cater at business parks?

Often, yes, if there’s a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will check with your facilities team.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. A simple chicken paella is normally popular with children. Include children in your numbers.

Do you do starters?

Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.

Can you invoice the company?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

Organising for someone else?

If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

What we need at the venue

Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.
