Live corporate paella catering in Selham

What affects the price in Selham

Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Guest numbers
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • The length of service
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff

There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The address or venue name
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • A photo of the space, if you can

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and you’ll get a menu idea and a price. Just use our quote form.

Corporate paella catering in Selham, cooked live

Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it’s ready, a queue moves fast because it’s served straight from the pan. For charity and fundraising events and end-of-year celebrations, we can cook vegan and vegetarian paella, paella lunches and Spanish desserts for your guests.

An away day near Selham is a good fit for live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Selham questions

How far is Selham from London?

About 44 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Selham?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.

What about pudding?

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.

Can you cook indoors?

Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.

Can we pay by invoice?

Let us know your company’s process, and we will talk you through it.

The process

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand. In Selham, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
