How the day works

Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:
- Waiting and bar staff
- How many courses
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Timings and hours
There is 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.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Your date and when you want to eat
- A photo of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- Expected numbers
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
Working with your venue
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about parking, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.
What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- A cooking spot outside the marquee, not inside it
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Live paella or other catering?
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Separate paella pans cover every diet. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
Why book with us
- Hot food served quickly from the pan
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
- Live cooking, not reheated food
- No hidden extras in your quote
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
