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.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

How the day works

Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. In South Bermondsey, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Give us your final numbers and diets

How to get 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 fill in our quote form.

Where we can cook in South Bermondsey

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

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

Questions from South Bermondsey

What about parking in South Bermondsey?

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

Which station should guests use for South Bermondsey?

South Bermondsey has its own station: South Bermondsey station.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.

How long does the paella take?

That depends on your menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.

Do you cover South Bermondsey?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and South Bermondsey is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.

Do you do vegan paella?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.

Work events in South Bermondsey: access and travel

South Bermondsey is about 2 miles north-west of New Cross, in Greater London. Whether your work event is in the middle of South Bermondsey or on the outskirts, corporate paella catering works the same way: live cooking, separate pans for every diet and a clear price. We cater in 764 places in Greater London.

With the A2208 nearby, access for our van and equipment is straightforward. Nearby historic houses include Mansion House (2.3 miles north-west) and Queen's House (2.4 miles east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for caterers.

This part of Greater London takes in SE16, SE15 and SE1. That could mean a work event in a garden on Tenda Road, Rolls Road and Simms Road or the roads around them. South Bermondsey is on the A2208, so it’s easy for us to reach with the van and pans. We also cook at work events in Surrey Canal (1 mile east), Surrey Quays (1 mile north-east), Bermondsey (1 mile north-west), Peckham (1 mile south) and Rotherhithe (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also cater in City of Westminster (4 miles north-west), Marylebone (4 miles north-west), Kensington (6 miles west), St Pancras (4 miles north-west), Shoreditch (3 miles north) and Walthamstow (7 miles north).

A little further out are Surrey Quays Shopping Centre (0.8 miles north-east) and Nunhead (1.3 miles south). Green spaces nearby include St. James's Park Lake and Tower Hill.

  • Local schools include City of London Academy (under half a mile north-west) and Southwark Free School (within half a mile south-west)
  • Nearby, you will find The Kentish Drovers Public House (under half a mile south)

What corporate paella catering costs

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Travel, parking and access
  • Timings and hours

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before booking.

Getting an accurate quote

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and rough timings
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • A picture of the space, if you can

Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: give us the basics about your work event, and we will suggest a menu. To start, fill in our quote form.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Get facilities approval early
  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies

The cooking area stays tidy.
