What corporate paella catering costs
Your quote will be clear and itemised. The main things that affect it are:
- Distance and access to the venue
- How long we’re needed on site
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Whether you need crockery
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- What the venue already provides
- Expected numbers
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of where we’d cook
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
DIY paella versus live catering
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. 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 be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Have water and soft drinks available
- Think about shade and seating
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
We serve at the agreed time, whether that is a lunch break or an evening party.
Sangria and bar staff for drinks you provide.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.
