How we price corporate paella catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Your choice of paellas
- Waiting and bar staff
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Expected numbers
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
Send us the date, your venue or RH20 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get a menu idea and a price. To get started, fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
We arrive at the agreed time and follow your site rules.
Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
The process
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. In Rackham, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
