Corporate paella catering for your work event in Willesden

For client events, presentation matters: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. Typical bookings include christmas parties and team-building days, serving canapé tapas, paella lunches and Spanish desserts.

London work events in Willesden frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Tell us about building access and loading. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once it’s ready.

Choosing a paella caterer

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

What corporate paella catering costs

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Whether you need crockery
  • Parking and unloading
  • Your choice of paellas
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • The address or venue name
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Your date and when you want to eat

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
