Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • How many staff you need
  • The length of service

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Details that help

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • The venue or postcode
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Access for unloading at set-up
  • Spacing from tents and other structures
  • Pitch space for cooking and serving

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.

How the day works

Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. At midsummer, events in Maids Moreton stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. Send us your event details and pitch information.
  2. We confirm menu, pitch needs and documents.
  3. We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
  4. We cook and serve throughout.
  5. We clear and leave the pitch clean.

How to prepare
