Live corporate paella catering in Simpson
DIY paella versus live catering
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
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.
About our corporate paella catering in Simpson
A paella station turns lunch into part of the event, not just a break from it. For product launches and open days and conference lunches, we can cook Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas for your guests.
For rural venues near Simpson, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Working with your venue
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll tell you honestly whether live paella will work.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
What happens on the day
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our cooking area, and cook and serve without fuss. After-work summer parties in Simpson have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
