How we price paella party catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How long we are needed on site
- The number of people
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many courses
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.
What we need to know
The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Expected numbers
