How the day works
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. In Staplecross, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day

Staplecross is about 7 miles north of Hastings, in East Sussex. We bring corporate paella catering to homes, gardens and venues in Staplecross and the surrounding area. We cater in all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex. We cook right across the region, from Staplecross to Brighton (31 miles away).
Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: Robertsbridge station is about 3.1 miles away. Staplecross is about 45 miles from central London, which makes it handy for team days out of the city. With the High Weald National Landscape within about 7 miles, rural team days are easy to arrange.
Wherever your work event is in TN32, we can cook for your guests. That could mean a work event in a garden on Sheringham Close, Cricketers Field and Weald View. If your venue is just outside Staplecross, we also cover Cripp's Corner (1 mile south-west), Snagshall (1 mile north), Swaile's Green (1 mile south-west), Mill Corner (2 miles east) and Sedlescombe (3 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Hastings (7 miles south), Bexhill-on-Sea (9 miles south), Hailsham (14 miles south-west), St Leonards (8 miles south), Hastings Old Town (8 miles south) and Belmont (8 miles south).

Questions from Staplecross
Is Staplecross close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you do starters?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
We can. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will talk it through before the day.
Should I cook it myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Live paella or other catering?
Food vans can create long queues. Paella is served fast from the pan. Larger events normally cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
