Corporate paella catering for Water End events
Corporate paella catering for your work event in Water End
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. For open days and launches and client hospitality, we can cook canapé tapas, paella lunches and bowl food for your guests.
Team away days in the countryside around Water End suit live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated.
Your questions about corporate paella catering in Water End
Which station should guests use for Water End?
The closest is Hook station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
Is Water End close to London?
About 42 miles from central London.
Who clears up?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
Is the paella gluten-free?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Frequently, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We’ll confirm with facilities.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
We can. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
