Why live cooking beats a buffet
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What corporate paella catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How many guests are eating
- The paellas you choose
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.

Hyde End: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Hyde End?
Great Missenden station, about 1.8 miles west of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Hyde End?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
Do you cater at business parks?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We’ll confirm with facilities.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Can you send documents to our venue?
Ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
