Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Your choice of paellas
- Parking and unloading
- The number of people
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

The process

- We send the documents the event asks for.
- On the day, the pans are on before the busiest hours.
