About our corporate paella catering in Uplees
We cater summer parties, office lunches, team days, open days and client events, at offices, hired venues and outdoor spaces. We cook canapé tapas, bowl food and Spanish desserts, and we are frequently booked for christmas and end-of-year parties and team-building days.
For rural venues near Uplees, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, not reheated.
Is live paella right for your work event?
If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Served hot, straight from the pan
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- Events in Uplees and across Kent
- Sangria and bar staff available

Step by step
When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. December events in Uplees are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Get facilities approval early
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
We arrive on time and follow your site rules.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Uplees
Do you come out to small places like Uplees?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Which station should guests use for Uplees?
The closest is Faversham station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
Can you serve drinks?
Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
We can. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
How we price corporate paella catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- Guest numbers
- Waiting and bar staff
- Whether you need crockery
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- Anything your venue supplies
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Where the event is
- Diets and allergies you know about
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
