How we price corporate paella catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Parking and unloading
- The length of service
- The paellas you choose
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Which courses you have in mind
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Diets and allergies you know about
Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
