Corporate paella catering in Selhurst, made fresh on the day

We cater summer parties, office lunches, team days, open days and client events, at offices, hired venues and outdoor spaces. We are frequently asked to cater client hospitality and summer staff parties, with Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas.

For offices in and around Selhurst, the cooking spot is normally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Facilities teams typically need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Think about shade and seating
  • Ask staff about diets in advance

The space is left clean and tidy.

Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.

12 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Selhurst

What’s the nearest station to Selhurst for guests?

Selhurst has its own station: Norwood Junction station.

Is parking a problem for events in Selhurst?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will plan unloading around it.

Do you cook it at the event?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.

Is the paella gluten-free?

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.

How does payment work for businesses?

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

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.

Can you provide dessert?

Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

For planners, venues and organisers

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.

Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether live paella will work.

Before you choose a spot

Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:

  • Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot

Selhurst is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s served at its best. For a Christmas party in Selhurst, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Getting a price

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Live paella or other catering?

If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella stands out. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

DIY paella versus live catering

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
  • Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
