Corporate paella catering in Ewelme
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Corporate paella catering in Ewelme, cooked live
For client events, presentation matters: canapé tapas and small bowls of paella served by staff feel polished. Typical bookings include launches and open days and summer parties for staff, serving Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and vegan and vegetarian paella.

How we price corporate paella catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Your choice of paellas
- Timings and hours
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How many guests are eating
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The date and rough timings
- What the venue already provides
- The venue or postcode
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. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
