How we price corporate paella catering
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- The paellas you choose
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Where the event is
- Your date and when you want to eat
- The courses you’d like

- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
