What affects the price in Westergate
We’ll give you a clear, itemised quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Travel, parking and access
- How many staff you need
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many guests are eating
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The address or venue name
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Which courses you have in mind
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- An open-sided catering gazebo next to the marquee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it is served hot from the pan at the agreed time. At midsummer, sunset in Westergate is about 9:20pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
