How we price corporate paella catering
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Distance and access to the venue
- The length of service
- How many staff you need
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
What to tell us
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The date and rough timings
- The venue or postcode
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
- Have water and soft drinks available
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
Service is timed to your schedule, lunchtime or evening.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
Postcombe questions
Is Postcombe too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
How far is Postcombe from London?
About 40 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it is cooked separately.
Can you cook in the rain?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will talk it through before the day.
How do you work out quantities?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Let us know about any other food. See how much paella per person.
Who clears up?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Do you cook inside?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
How long do you need on site?
We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.
Planning the cooking area
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Facilities approval and any site rules
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.
On the menu in Postcombe

Paella compared with other options
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Planning help
Why choose corporate paella catering in Postcombe?
It needs no kitchen, so it works at offices, car parks, courtyards and outdoor venues.
If you are planning any of these, we can help:
- Open days and launches
- Charity days
- Client hospitality
- Team-building events
Postcombe is about 40 miles from central London, which makes it handy for team days out of the city.
What your quote should include
- Plates, cutlery and napkins, or disposables
- When payment is due
- How bad weather is handled
- Staff numbers and hours
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
