Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
What corporate paella catering costs
Your quote will be clear and itemised. The main things that affect it are:
- Travel, parking and access
- The paellas you choose
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Timings and hours
Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The courses you’d like
- Where the event is
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
What we need at the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:

Shoreham-by-Sea: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Shoreham-by-Sea?
Shoreham-by-Sea has its own station: Shoreham-By-Sea station.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Shoreham-by-Sea.
How much is live paella catering?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Generally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Dishes our guests love
Paella lunches
A paella lunch feeds a team fast, with every diet covered.
Vegan and vegetarian pans
A real main for vegetarians and vegans, in its own pan.
Live paella or other catering?
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
