Corporate paella catering in Warsash, made fresh on the day

Work events near Warsash might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. Live paella works in all of them. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. In Warsash, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.

Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Planning the cooking area
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We look for:
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- Level ground for the pans and burners
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
