About our corporate paella catering in Wecock Farm
Guests gather round to watch it cook, and service from the pan keeps queues short. On the menu are paella lunches, bowl food and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for open days and launches and team-building events.
Work events near Wecock Farm might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. Live paella works in all of them. We serve straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.
The process
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you’re free to enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. For a Christmas party in Wecock Farm, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Wecock Farm: your questions answered
Is Wecock Farm close to London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Wecock Farm for guests?
Rowlands Castle station, about 3.3 miles east of the centre.
Can we pay by invoice?
We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.
What space do you need to cook?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can you cater a winter event?
With the right covered space, yes. Hot paella in winter is popular.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Planning for every diet
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Give us diet totals and allergy details
We adapt if timings change.

DIY paella versus live catering
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
