Corporate paella catering for your work event in Townhill Park
Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and does not stop people talking. Live paella does all three. Popular choices include canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and paella lunches, and we’re regularly asked to cater client and customer events and christmas and end-of-year parties.
Work events near Townhill Park might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. Live paella works in all of them. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

The process
The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. In Townhill Park, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

- Travel, parking and access
- How long we are needed on site
- Waiting and bar staff
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
