What corporate paella catering costs

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Timings and hours
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • How many guests are eating

Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed before you book.

What we need to know

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • What the venue already provides
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • The address or venue name
  • Expected numbers

The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your work event, and we will suggest paellas and extras to suit.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
  • Have water and soft drinks available

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

Why choose live paella in New Milton?

Why New Milton hosts choose us

  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Drinks service on request
  • A clear, itemised quote
  • Hot food served quickly from the pan

See Our pricing Or Our guide to catering costs.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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 will do the cooking.

How the day works

Your timings come first. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. In New Milton, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
