Your questions about corporate paella catering in Woodlands St Mary

Is Woodlands St Mary too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Can you cook at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Can you feed everyone quickly?

It is ideal for that. Share the timings and we’ll plan for them.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, West Berkshire included. See all areas.

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.

Do you cater in Woodlands St Mary?

We do. We cook at events in Woodlands St Mary and across West Berkshire. Send us your date to check availability.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Who clears up?

We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.

Dietary needs and planning tips

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Think about shade and seating
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing

We arrive on time and follow your site rules.

Bar staff and sangria on request.

Prices and what affects them

There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • Guest numbers
  • The length of service
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Your choice of paellas

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

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • A picture of where we’d cook

We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. To ask for one, use our quote form.

What’s in the pans

Canapé tapas

Canapés suit launches and client events.

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A real main for vegetarians and vegans, not an afterthought.

How the day works

The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. December events in Woodlands St Mary are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Leave space around the cooking area

Planning help

Paella compared with other options

Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella just needs a suitable spot. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Why us?

  • Every diet catered for, pan by pan
  • A clear, itemised quote
  • Fast service from the pan
  • Crockery and waiting staff if you need them

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

Space, weather and the venue

Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:

  • A safe distance from anything that could catch
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • Sign-off from facilities for live cooking

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.
