How we price corporate paella catering

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Guest numbers
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • How long we are needed on site

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

What we need to know

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Which courses you have in mind
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • A picture of the space, if you can
  • The address or venue name

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

  • Fast service from the pan
  • No hidden extras in your quote

Should I cook it myself?

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:

  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Facilities approval and any site rules
  • Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

We can. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

What about pudding?

Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.
