About our corporate paella catering in Slade Green

Canapés, bowl food and desserts can be added, and we’ll work with your venue on access, timings and paperwork. We are often asked to cater company summer parties and open days and launches, serving bowl food, Spanish desserts and canapé tapas.

Around Slade Green, office events tend to use courtyards, terraces and car parks. Facilities teams typically need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. You will know exactly what’s included before booking: the menu, the staff and any extras, with no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. After-work summer parties in Slade Green have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. It is served quickly, then we pack down.

Getting ready for the day

Slade Green: your questions answered

What about parking in Slade Green?

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

Could we have live paella in Braeburn Park?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.

How many paellas should we have?

Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.

Do you do Christmas parties?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. Hot paella in winter is popular.

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

What do you need at the venue?

Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you are not sure.

DIY paella versus live catering

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

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.

Why choose corporate paella catering in Slade Green?

It needs no kitchen, so courtyards and outdoor spaces work.

In Slade Green and nearby, we cater all sorts of events. Popular bookings include:
