Corporate paella catering in Southington

How it works

We work to your timings. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. In Southington, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Preparing for the day

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Give us a contact for the day

How our corporate paella catering works in Southington

Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is the point of a team event. Whether it is team-building events and client hospitality, we will put together a menu of vegan and vegetarian paella, Spanish desserts and bowl food and more.

Team away days in the countryside around Southington suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

How to compare caterers

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

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.

Before you choose a spot

If a space is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Southington

Which station should guests use for Southington?

Overton station, about 1.1 miles north-east of the centre.

Is Southington close to London?

About 54 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

Can you cook indoors?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

What does corporate paella catering cost?

We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

Do you do Christmas parties?

Yes, if there is a covered, ventilated spot. December dates go fast.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

Working with your venue

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

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

What affects the price in Southington

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Travel, parking and access
  • The length of service

The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.
