How we price corporate paella catering
We will give you a clear, itemised quote. What affects it most:
- Whether you need crockery
- Your choice of paellas
- Guest numbers
- Parking and unloading
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before you book.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The venue or postcode
- What the venue already provides
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.
How it works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. December events in East Ashling are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
- Name one person we can ask on the day
Getting a price
We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
