Corporate paella catering in Town Row, made fresh on the day
Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it is ready, a queue moves fast because it is served straight from the pan. We cook bowl food, paella lunches and vegan and vegetarian paella, and typical bookings are for launches and open days and end-of-year celebrations.
Team away days in the countryside around Town Row suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan.

Questions from Town Row
Is Town Row too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you cook at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Town Row.
What documents can you provide?
Send us the venue’s requirements and we’ll respond.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
How long does the paella take?
We get there in good time to set up. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What’s in the pans
Paella lunches
Two or three paellas served from the pan, ideal for a lunch break.
Bowl food
Bowl food lets guests eat while they mingle.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Think about shade and seating
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
We adapt if timings change.
Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
