How to compare caterers

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

For planners, venues and organisers

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • The venue’s permission for live cooking
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before you book.

How it works

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it is served hot from the pan at the agreed time. For a Christmas party in Fairwarp, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Planning help

What affects the price in Fairwarp

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Parking and unloading
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • How many courses

There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

Details that help

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • The date and rough timings
  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • The address or venue name

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
