Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Parking and unloading
  • Waiting and bar staff
  • How many guests are eating

The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Details that help

  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and time of the event
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Which courses you have in mind

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.

Common questions in Twyford

Is Twyford close to London?

About 50 miles from central London.

Do you come out to small places like Twyford?

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

Do you take everything away?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Can you do sangria?

Sangria can be added, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.

How much paella per person?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Let us know about any other food. Our guide to portions explains more.

Can you bring crockery?

Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

How many different paellas?

Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will suggest a split based on your guests.

Who books corporate paella catering in Twyford?

It feeds a lot of people quickly, which matters when time is tight.

Whatever the occasion, live paella can be the centrepiece. We often cook for:

12 questions to ask before you book

Dietary needs and planning tips

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

  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
  • Think about shade and seating

Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception, so guests can network while they eat.

Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff available.

The process

The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. In Twyford, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Tell us where to park and unload
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

Planning help

Live paella or other catering?

A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.

Why us?

  • Served hot, straight from the pan
  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • Starters and desserts to complete the menu
  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks

Should I cook it myself?

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.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
