12 questions to ask before you book

How we price festival paella catering

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • How long we’re needed on site
  • Parking and unloading

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Details that help

  • The date and time of the event

Planners, venues and businesses

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. Paella adds something different in a food line-up. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
