About our corporate paella catering in St Pancras

Live paella makes lunch an activity, not just a break from it. We cook canapé tapas, bowl food and vegan and vegetarian paella, and we’re often booked for open days and launches and summer parties for staff.

London work events in St Pancras often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, not reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.

Space, weather and the venue

We’ll be honest if a space will not work. What matters most:

  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • A safe distance from anything that could catch

As a London location, St Pancras is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • The length of service
  • The number of people
  • Parking and unloading

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The address or venue name
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • A picture of where we’d cook

12 questions to ask before you book

St Pancras: your questions answered

Could we have live paella in Lincoln's Inn Fields?

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

Which station should guests use for St Pancras?

London Kings Cross station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.

How much does corporate paella catering cost in St Pancras?

Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.

How much paella per person?

Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.

Can you feed everyone quickly?

That is one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.

Is halal food available?

We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it’s cooked separately.

How the day works

On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. For a Christmas party in St Pancras, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers 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

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Plan cover in case of rain

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • No hidden extras in your quote
  • Fast service from the pan
  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment

DIY paella versus live catering

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.

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

Planning for every diet

With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:

  • Share the timings for food
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Provide shade and seats outdoors

Staff can circulate with canapés or bowls, so guests can network while they eat.

Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
  • Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
