Your questions about corporate paella catering in Winford
Which station should guests use for Winford?
Lake station, about 1.6 miles east of the centre.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Do you cook inside?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Courtyards and terraces often work, subject to the building’s rules.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, the Isle of Wight included. Find your area.

Catering for every guest
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Ask staff about diets in advance
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
The space is left clean and tidy.
Bar staff and sangria on request.

How the day works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. For a Christmas party in Winford, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We clear our area and leave it clean.
