Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Parking and unloading
- Waiting and bar staff
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
There is 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. We itemise everything in your quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The date and rough timings
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, use our quote form.
West Preston questions
Could we have live paella in Mewsbrook Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Is West Preston close to London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
Yes. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Can you invoice the company?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

DIY paella versus live catering
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. December events in West Preston are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
