Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Travel, parking and access
- The number of people
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Waiting and bar staff
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which courses you have in mind
- What the venue already provides
- The date and time of the event
- The venue or postcode
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.
About our corporate paella catering in Newton Valence

Paella compared with other options
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes 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 will do the cooking.
Where we can cook in Newton Valence
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Newton Valence
- Bowl food
- Canapé tapas

Common questions in Newton Valence
Can you cook at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Newton Valence?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.
What if the weather’s bad?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.

We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we will cook a separate pan.
Can you cater a winter event?

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
