Sharing a pan of paella at the table

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • The length of service
  • Travel, parking and access
  • How many staff you need

Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We will send you a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Expected numbers
  • The venue or postcode
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

Catering for every guest

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:

  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Ask staff about diets in advance
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks

We adapt if timings change.

Sangria and bar staff for drinks you provide.

FAQs for Plaxtol

Can you cook in Ivy Hatch Nature Reserve?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

Is Plaxtol too small for live paella?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we’ll quote for the rest.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

Can you cater a winter event?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

Is halal food available?

Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

The process

Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our cooking area, and cook and serve without fuss. In Plaxtol, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

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

How to prepare
