Should I cook it myself?

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

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. A simple chicken paella is generally popular with children. Include children in your numbers.

Can you serve tapas as well?

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

Do you cater at business parks?

Do you work in winter?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

How we price corporate paella catering

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Timings and hours
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Waiting and bar staff

Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed before booking.

What to tell us

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Anything your venue supplies
  • The venue or postcode
  • A photo of the space, if you can
  • Expected numbers

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.

The process

When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell normally draws people over. For a Christmas party in Strettington, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  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. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Tell us when you want to eat
