Why live cooking beats a buffet

Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella is served hot as soon as it is ready. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Why Princes Risborough hosts choose us

  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • Drinks service on request
  • No hidden extras in your quote
  • Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

Space, weather and the venue

We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:

  • Level ground for the pans and burners
  • Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

  • Desserts
  • Paella lunches
  • Drinks service
  • Bowl food
  • Canapé tapas

FAQs for Princes Risborough

What’s the nearest station to Princes Risborough for guests?

The closest is Princes Risborough station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Do you do Christmas parties?

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

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Can you bring crockery?

If you need them, yes. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

What space do you need to cook?

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

Do you offer halal options?

Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.

Do you do desserts?

Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.

Planning for every diet

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

  • Find out what paperwork the venue needs
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
  • Confirm live cooking with facilities
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

We adapt if timings change.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

How we price corporate paella catering

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many staff you need
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Travel, parking and access
  • Guest numbers

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

What to tell us

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Which courses you have in mind
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • What the venue already provides

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

What’s in the pans

Paella lunches

A paella lunch feeds a team fast, with every diet covered.

Vegan and vegetarian pans

Cooked separately with their own stock, so everyone eats well.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
