What affects the price in Westcott
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Guest numbers
- Your choice of paellas
- How many staff you need
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Which courses you have in mind
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- Roughly how many adults and children
- The venue or postcode
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can use our quote form.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
A buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Paella is cooked fresh and served hot. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
