Your questions about corporate paella catering in Walthamstow
Can you cook in Lloyd Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
What’s the nearest station to Walthamstow for guests?
Walthamstow has its own station: Walthamstow Central station.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Is the paella gluten-free?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
It is ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We’ll talk it through before the day.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception, so guests can network while they eat.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.

Live paella or other catering?
Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella is served hot as soon as it is ready. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.
Why us?
- A quote that spells everything out
- Fast service from the pan
- Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
- Food that becomes part of the entertainment

How it works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. For a Christmas party in Walthamstow, it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day
