What corporate paella catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Guest numbers
- Your choice of paellas
- Distance and access to the venue
Larger events normally cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The date and rough timings
- Where the event is
- A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.
DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

How the day works
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. In Seaton, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Seaton
Which station should guests use for Seaton?
The closest is Bekesbourne station, roughly 2.8 miles away.
Is Seaton close to London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London.
What do you need at the venue?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a photo.
Will there be enough food?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
What documents can you provide?
Tell us what your venue or facilities team needs, and we will provide it.
Can you cook in the rain?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Who clears up?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Is live paella right for your work event?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
