Questions from Swiss Cottage
Could we have live paella in Primrose Hill?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Is parking a problem for events in Swiss Cottage?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will work around it.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
It’s ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.
How long do you need on site?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you so the paella is ready when you want it.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
How much space do you need?
Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. If in doubt, send a photo.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Do you cater at business parks?
Courtyards and terraces frequently work, if the building allows it.
Before you choose a spot
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Level ground for the pans and burners
As a London location, Swiss Cottage is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.
What we offer
- Bowl food
- Desserts
- Vegan & vegetarian pans
- Paella lunches
- Drinks service
- Canapé tapas
Planners, venues and businesses
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
How we price corporate paella catering
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Travel, parking and access
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- How many guests are eating
- The length of service
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d cook
- The date and rough timings
- Which courses you have in mind
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.
What you get with us
- A quote that spells everything out
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- Food that becomes part of the entertainment
