Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- How many guests are eating
- Distance and access to the venue
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Details that help

Haylands questions
What’s the nearest station to Haylands for guests?
Ryde St Johns Road station, about 0.9 miles north-east of the centre.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Courtyards and terraces frequently work, if the building allows it.
What space do you need to cook?
Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. If in doubt, send a picture.
How long does the paella take?
We get there in good time to set up. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
What documents can you provide?
Ask facilities for their list and pass it on and we’ll respond.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Do you do starters?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Planning the cooking area
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
Haylands is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Why choose live paella in Haylands?
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Larger events usually cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
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 for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
The process
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. December events in Haylands are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
