Corporate paella catering for Cliddesden events
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The paellas you choose
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many guests are eating
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The venue or postcode
- Which courses you have in mind
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Tell us about your work event in Cliddesden, and we will put together a menu and price.
