What affects the price in West Hanney
These are the factors that matter most:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Guest numbers
- How many courses
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
