What affects the price in Bar End

Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Parking and unloading
  • Timings and hours
  • The paellas you choose
  • How many guests are eating

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • What the venue already provides
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • The date and rough timings

Choosing a paella caterer

Bar End: your questions answered

How far is Bar End from London?

About 61 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Which station should guests use for Bar End?

The closest is Winchester station, roughly 1.2 miles away.

What happens if it rains?

We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.

Can you serve tapas as well?

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

Do you cook it at the event?

It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, serving it hot from the pan.

Do you do desserts?

Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.

Can we pay by invoice?

Let us know your company’s process, and we will talk you through it.

Should we have more than one paella?

Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll help you decide the split.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

How the day works

From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. In Bar End, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
