- Think about shade and seating
- Share the timings for food
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
We leave the space as we found it.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
The process
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. For a Christmas party in Sutton, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- 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 clear our area and leave it clean.
Before we arrive
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Check the venue allows live cooking
How to get a price
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can use our quote form.

How we price corporate paella catering
Your quote will be clear and itemised. The main things that affect it are:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Guest numbers
- Travel, parking and access
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We will send you a quote.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Which courses you have in mind
- A picture of the space, if you can
- The date and time of the event
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.

DIY paella versus live catering
