Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Distance and access to the venue
- Your choice of paellas
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Where the event is
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
