About our corporate paella catering in Tidebrook
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and service from the pan keeps queues short. We’re often asked to cater away days and office lunches and summer parties for staff, with bowl food, paella lunches and canapé tapas.
For rural venues near Tidebrook, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it’s ready.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Let us know how long people have to eat
We arrive on time and follow your site rules, including sign-in and parking.
Crockery and staff can be added.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
Why Tidebrook hosts choose us
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
- Fast service from the pan
- Paella cooked from scratch on site
- Catering across East Sussex, including Tidebrook
