What paella party catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How many guests are eating
- Waiting and bar staff
- Timings and hours
- Your choice of paellas
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.
Details that help
The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, courses and extras. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Level ground for the pans and burners
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Common questions in Milton
Do you come out to small places like Milton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St John the Evangelist: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
What if the weather’s bad?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Is my garden big enough?
Many gardens work. We need a level spot, clearance from anything flammable and reasonable access. A picture helps.
Do you cover Milton?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Milton is within our area and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We can. Let us know and we’ll add it to the quote.
How do you work out quantities?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
Can you cook halal paella?
We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we will cook a separate pan.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.
The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our cooking area, and get on with cooking and serving. A summer party in Milton stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- We arrive before your guests and set up.
- Guests watch the paella cook.
- We serve, then clear our area.
