What corporate paella catering costs
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The number of people
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Timings and hours
- Starters, canapés and desserts
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The address or venue name
- What the venue already provides
- Your date and when you want to eat
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and you will get a menu idea and a price. Just use our quote form.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
What you get with us
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
- Served hot, straight from the pan

Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
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.
