Corporate paella catering in Wallington, made fresh on the day
At client events, presentation counts: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. We cook canapé tapas, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches, and we’re regularly asked to cater client hospitality and christmas and end-of-year parties.
For offices in and around Wallington, the cooking spot is generally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Get facilities’ approval and plan loading early. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Wallington questions
Which station should guests use for Wallington?
Wallington has its own station: Wallington station.
Is parking a problem for events in Wallington?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will work around it.
What if the weather’s bad?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can the team help cook?
Mention it in your enquiry, and we will see what works.
Can you bring crockery?
We can. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
How much does corporate paella catering cost in Wallington?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
Do you cook it at the event?
It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Give us diet totals and allergy details
- Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Let us know how long people have to eat
Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception.
Canapés for drinks receptions.
How it works
Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. In Wallington, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
