Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • How long we’re needed on site
  • How many staff you need
  • Your choice of paellas
  • How many guests are eating

Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Details that help

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Anything your venue supplies
  • The venue or postcode
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • The courses you’d like

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote.

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Confirm live cooking with facilities
  • Make sure there are plenty of soft drinks
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
  • Find out what paperwork the venue needs

Service is timed to your schedule, whether that’s a lunch break or an evening party.

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.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

How the day works

Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. After-work summer parties in North Charford have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  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. It is served quickly, then we pack down.

Preparing for the day

  • Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Tell us where to park and unload
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
