What affects the price in Newington

Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:

  • How long we are needed on site
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Starters, canapés and desserts

Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • What the venue already provides
  • The date and rough timings
  • Which courses you have in mind

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.

What happens on the day

The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. In Newington, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Newington questions

Which station should guests use for Newington?

Ramsgate station, about 0.7 miles south-east of the centre.

Can you cook near the sea around Newington?

Yes, as long as we can shelter from the wind. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.

Can you cook at our office?

Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, subject to the building’s rules.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through it.

Working with your venue

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Paella compared with other options

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Why Newington hosts choose us

  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • Fast service from the pan
  • We cover Newington and the whole of Kent

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
