About our corporate paella catering in Shepherd's Bush

Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and service from the pan keeps queues short. We are often asked to cater summer staff parties and customer events, with vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and bowl food.

London work events in Shepherd's Bush often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan for fast service. Tell us about building access and loading. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Planning for every diet

With a little notice, every diet is easy. We suggest:

  • Ask staff about diets in advance
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Let us know how long people have to eat

We adapt if timings change.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

What we need at the venue

Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot

As a London location, Shepherd's Bush is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

What we offer

  • Drinks service
  • Paella lunches
  • Bowl food
  • Vegan & vegetarian pans
  • Canapé tapas
  • Desserts

FAQs for Shepherd's Bush

Could we have live paella in Hammersmith Park?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

What about parking in Shepherd's Bush?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.

Do you do Christmas parties?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

How long does the paella take?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through it.

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.

Is it really cooked live?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, serving it hot from the pan.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Shepherd's Bush.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Step by step

Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. In Shepherd's Bush, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
