How we price festival paella catering
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Parking and unloading
- How many guests are eating
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
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.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- What the venue already provides
- Your date and when you want to eat
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many adults and children
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, courses and extras. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

Green Street Green: your questions answered
Do you trade at school fairs around Green Street Green?
Yes, if the school is happy for us to cook on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
What about parking in Green Street Green?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will plan unloading around it.
Do you need power?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we will confirm what we need.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes. Crew, volunteer and VIP catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Do you offer halal options?
We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and it is cooked separately.
Is the paella cooked on site?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Will there be long queues?
Paella is cooked in big batches and served from the pan, so service is quick.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Why choose live paella in Green Street Green?
