How it works

On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. December events in Stockcross are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  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

  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Tell us where to park and unload

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Travel, parking and access

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why Stockcross hosts choose us

  • Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
