Corporate paella catering for Wisley events
Corporate paella catering in Wisley, cooked live
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is the point of a team event. We cook vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and canapé tapas, and we are frequently booked for conferences and training days and client hospitality.
An away day near Wisley is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

What else we do in Wisley
Wisley: your questions answered
Is Wisley close to London?
Roughly 21 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cook in Manor Farm?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
Who clears up?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. A simple chicken paella is typically popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
What affects the price in Wisley
These are the factors that matter most:
- Travel, parking and access
- Waiting and bar staff
- How many guests are eating
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
Details that help
The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The venue or postcode
- Expected numbers
- Any dietary needs and allergies
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you are ready, use our quote form.
Step by step
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. In Wisley, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We check the date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Share the timings for food
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
We adapt if timings change.
Crockery and staff can be added.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Space, weather and the venue
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
