Why live cooking beats a buffet
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs a lot of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers diets with separate pans. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.
Why West End hosts choose us
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
What affects the price in West End
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- How long we’re needed on site
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Expected numbers
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- What the venue already provides
- The date and rough timings

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
