Organising for someone else?

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
How we price corporate paella catering
We’ll give you a clear, itemised quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Waiting and bar staff
- The paellas you choose
- Whether you need crockery
- How many courses
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- Which courses you have in mind
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, use our quote form.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you serve drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.

- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
