What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. For a Christmas party in Welling, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Preparing for the day

  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Tell us when you want to eat

FAQs for Welling

Is parking a problem for events in Welling?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will plan unloading around it.

Could we have live paella in Danson Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Do you do starters?

Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.

How much does corporate paella catering cost in Welling?

Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

Do you come to Welling?

We do. Welling is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

How long do you need on site?

We get there in good time to set up. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

Do you cook inside?

Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
