Corporate paella catering in Woolmer, made fresh on the day
Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and does not stop people talking. Live paella ticks every box. Popular choices include Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and we’re regularly asked to cater christmas and end-of-year parties and product launches and open days.
An away day near Woolmer is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. We plan the timings around your day, so the paella is ready when you want to eat.
Space, weather and the venue
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

How it works
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. After-work summer parties in Woolmer have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- 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 in front of your team and serve on time.
- We clear our area and leave it clean.
Preparing for the day

Planning help
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.
Diets, allergies and planning
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
