Should I cook it myself?

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

How it works

The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. December events in Roedean are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot

What corporate paella catering costs

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • How many courses
  • The number of people
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • The length of service

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • A picture of the space, if you can
  • Where the event is
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Questions from Roedean

Can you cook in Whitehawk Hill?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

Do you come out to small places like Roedean?

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Do you cater for young children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan for them.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.

Do you do starters?

Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

Will there be enough food?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Let us know about any other food. Our guide to portions explains more.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you so the paella is ready when you want it.
