Swanbourne: your questions answered

How far is Swanbourne from London?

Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like Swanbourne?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.

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.

Do you do Christmas parties?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

What about pudding?

We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.

What paperwork do you have?

Tell us what your venue or facilities team needs, and we will provide it.

What does corporate paella catering cost?

The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.

How we price corporate paella catering

Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • How many staff you need
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Parking and unloading
  • The number of people

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.

Details that help

The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • A photo of the space, if you can
  • Diets and allergies you know about

We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A real main for vegetarians and vegans, not an afterthought.

Canapé tapas

Canapé tapas suit client events.

Planning for every diet

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Have water and soft drinks available
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adapt.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

For planners, venues and organisers

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Organising a club, school or community event in Swanbourne? Paella is quick to serve to a crowd and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.

Planning the cooking area

Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We need:

  • Facilities approval and any site rules
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.
