How we price corporate paella catering

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How long we’re needed on site
  • How many guests are eating
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Travel, parking and access

Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

  • A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

How the day works

We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Your guests are welcome to watch while it cooks. For a Christmas party in Clerkenwell, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Planning help

Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Working with your venue

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.
