What affects the price in Finglesham
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Travel, parking and access
- Guest numbers
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How long we are needed on site
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
What to tell us
The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- What the venue already provides
- A photo of the space, if you can
- The courses you’d like
- The address or venue name

Live paella or other catering?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.
Why book with us

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Can you feed everyone quickly?
