How our corporate paella catering works in Summerstown
We plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so a large team can be fed in a lunch break. For open days and launches and team days, we can cook canapé tapas, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches for your guests.
Around Summerstown, office events tend to use courtyards, terraces and car parks. Facilities teams usually need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- The paellas you choose
- Travel, parking and access
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Waiting and bar staff
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of the space, if you can
- What the venue already provides
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Diets and allergies you know about
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day usually runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. December events in Summerstown are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.
Before we arrive
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Summerstown
Which station should guests use for Summerstown?
Earlsfield station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Can you cook in King George's Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.
How does payment work for businesses?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
How much space do you need?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can you cater a winter event?
Yes, if there’s a covered, ventilated spot. December dates go fast.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Planning the cooking area
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
As a London location, Summerstown is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
