What corporate paella catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Your choice of paellas
- How many courses
- How long we are needed on site
- Whether you need crockery
There’s 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.

DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it is served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. In Tile Hurst, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
