Corporate paella catering in Pell Green

How we price corporate paella catering

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Your choice of paellas
  • Parking and unloading
  • Guest numbers
  • Whether you need crockery

Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Expected numbers
  • The date and time of the event
  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • Which courses you have in mind

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you are ready, use our quote form.

DIY paella versus live catering

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

The process

We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. December events in Pell Green are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

How to prepare

  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
