Corporate paella catering in Winterbourne, made fresh on the day
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. On the menu are Spanish desserts, paella lunches and bowl food, and we are frequently booked for training days and conferences and launches and open days.
An away day near Winterbourne is a good fit for live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Questions from Winterbourne
Could we have live paella in Mount Ephraim Gardens?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
What’s the nearest station to Winterbourne for guests?
Selling station, about 1 mile south-west of the centre.
How does payment work for businesses?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, in front of your guests.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.
Do you work in winter?
Yes, if there is a covered, ventilated spot. Book early for December.
How long does the paella take?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you so the paella is ready when you want it.
Can the team help cook?
Many teams enjoy watching and learning how paella is made. Tell us what you’d like.
Live paella or other catering?
Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Before you choose a spot
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.
