What corporate paella catering costs

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

  • Parking and unloading
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • How long we are needed on site
  • How many guests are eating

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

What to tell us

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: give us the basics about your work event, and we’ll make suggestions. Start when you’re ready: fill in our quote form.

Is Crowdhill close to London?

About 63 miles from central London.

Which station should guests use for Crowdhill?

Eastleigh station, about 2.2 miles west of the centre.

How much paella per person?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Yes, we do. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.

Of course. A simple chicken paella is generally popular with children. Include children in your numbers.

Do you provide drinks?

We can make sangria, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.

What happens if it rains?

We need a covered spot, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.

Diets, allergies and planning

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form
  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers

12 questions to ask before booking

The menu, dish by dish

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A proper vegetarian or vegan main, in its own pan.

Canapé tapas

One-bite tapas served by staff.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Step by step

Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. December events in Crowdhill are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It is served quickly, then we pack down.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
