Corporate paella catering for your work event in Woodside Park
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. Popular choices include bowl food, Spanish desserts and paella lunches, and we’re regularly asked to cater customer events and conference lunches.
For offices in and around Woodside Park, the cooking spot is usually a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Facilities teams generally need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Woodside Park: your questions answered
Could we have live paella in Swan Lane Open Space?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Which station should guests use for Woodside Park?
Oakleigh Park station, about 1.6 miles north-east of the centre.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Do you cater at business parks?
Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We’ll confirm with facilities.
What paperwork do you have?
Let us know what’s required, and we’ll provide it.
How long does the paella take?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Should we have more than one paella?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will help you decide the split.
The menu, dish by dish
Paella lunches
Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.
Bowl food
Bowl food lets guests eat while they mingle.
DIY paella versus live catering
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
What happens on the day
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. After-work summer parties in Woodside Park have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Preparing for the day
