How we price corporate paella catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Timings and hours
- How many courses
- The paellas you choose
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Where the event is
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Anything your venue supplies
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
How it works
Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. After-work summer parties in Barton have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Check the venue allows live cooking
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Other catering in Barton
Is live paella right for your work event?
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Common questions in Barton
What about events near the coast?
Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Can you cook in Seaclose Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Frequently, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will confirm with facilities.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
Can you cater a winter event?
With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables are available.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
- Make sure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
We adapt if timings change.
Bowl food for standing events.
Should I cook it myself?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
- Cooked live in giant pans at your event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
