Prices and what affects them

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • The length of service
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • The number of people

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

Getting an accurate quote

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Where the event is
  • The date and rough timings
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.

How it works

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan at the agreed time. Sunset in Studley Green is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June. If the party runs past dark, we will need light where we cook and serve.

  1. Tell us when and where, and how many.
  2. We suggest paellas and extras and send a quote.
  3. We set up before guests arrive.
  4. Guests watch the paella cook.
  5. We serve from the pan and pack down.

  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan

FAQs for Studley Green

Can you cook at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Is Studley Green close to London?

Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

How much is live paella catering?

The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Do you cook inside?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

Will the neighbours notice?

Less smoke than a barbecue, more smell, and it’s a good smell. A friendly note to the neighbours helps.

Do you cook it at the event?

Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.

Can you supply plates?

Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables can be added to your booking.

Do you cook at halls and clubs?

Generally. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.

Chicken & chorizo paella

A smoky favourite with children and adults, ideal for guests who skip seafood.

For planners, venues and organisers

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
