How we price corporate paella catering

Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Guest numbers
  • Waiting and bar staff
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Your choice of paellas

There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Details that help

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Expected numbers
  • The courses you’d like
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • Where the event is

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

For event organisers in Three Ashes

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

How it works

On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. December events in Three Ashes are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Do you come out to small places like Three Ashes?

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Can you do sangria?

We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.

Do you cook it at the event?

Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.

What about pudding?

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.

How much paella per person?

Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Let us know about any other food. Our guide to portions explains more.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Think about shade and seating
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Get facilities approval early
  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.

Bar staff and sangria on request.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Buffet food sits out. Paella is served hot as soon as it is ready. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why book with us

  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • Drinks service on request
  • Fast service from the pan
