Corporate paella catering in Seaview
How it works
Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. For a Christmas party in Seaview, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Check the venue allows live cooking
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

Seaview: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Seaview?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Can you cook near the sea around Seaview?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
Yes, if you need them. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.
Can you cater a winter event?
With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
Yes. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.
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 do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.

Planning a team event in Seaview
Seaview is about 2 miles east of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Anywhere in PO34, we can cook for your guests. Seaview is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 18 miles away.
Central London is about 70 miles from Seaview, which makes it handy for team days out of the city. For staff and clients coming by train, Smallbrook Junction station is about 2 miles away. The coast is within about 3 miles, so a seafood pan goes down well at summer events.
For corporate paella catering in PO34, we plan around your venue and timings. Whether your work event is on High Street, Madeira Road and Church Street or anywhere nearby, we can cook there. We also cook at work events in Nettlestone (1 mile south), Spring Vale (1 mile north-west), Pondwell (1 mile west), Puckpool (1 mile west) and Appley (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (8 miles west), Cowes (9 miles west), Sandown (5 miles south-west), Shanklin (7 miles south-west), Ventnor (10 miles south-west) and East Cowes (8 miles west).

Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear and itemised. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether you need crockery
- The paellas you choose
- Travel, parking and access
- Starters, canapés and desserts
Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- The courses you’d like
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
- Cooked live in giant pans at your event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
