What affects the price in Monkton

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The length of service
  • The paellas you choose
  • How many guests are eating
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
