Planning for every diet
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Give us diet totals and allergy details
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adapt.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
Common questions in Tangmere
Is Tangmere close to London?
About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Frequently, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We’ll check with your facilities team.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana.
Do you cover Tangmere?
Yes, we do. Tangmere is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Can you serve drinks?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Step by step
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. After-work summer parties in Tangmere have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.

Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
What corporate paella catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The number of people
- The paellas you choose
- How long we’re needed on site
- Travel, parking and access
Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- What the venue already provides
- A picture of the space, if you can
- The date and time of the event
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Live paella or other catering?
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Why us?
- Fast service from the pan
- Drinks service on request
- Real theatre, not just catering
