How our corporate paella catering works in Warbleton
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is exactly what a team event is for. We are frequently asked to cater open days and launches and summer parties for staff, serving Spanish desserts, paella lunches and canapé tapas.
An away day near Warbleton is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

The process
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. For a Christmas party in Warbleton, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Name one person we can ask on the day
How to get a price
Send us the date, your venue or TN21 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get a menu idea and a price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. 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 will suggest a menu.

DIY paella versus live catering
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
