Price of Paella in Spain (2026 Menu Data)

## paella in Spain: what menus actually show Pricora collects restaurant menu prices across Spain. For **paella** we have listings from **8 venues**. | Statistic | Price | |---|---| | Median | €17.75 | | Lower quartile (25%) | €15.00 | | Upper quartile (75%) | €24.13 | Half of the venues charge less than the median, half more. The middle half of venues sit between €15.00 and €24.13. ## How to read these numbers - Listings mix different formats (tapa, half portion, full ración, whole dish), so the spread is wide. We do not quote the cheapest or most expensive listing because those are usually format or data outliers. - Prices are menu prices as listed, not what guests actually paid, and not adjusted for city. - The sample is 8 venues, so treat the figures as a benchmark, not a rule. ## For restaurant owners If you charge below the lower quartile, check your food cost: price = ingredient cost ÷ target food-cost share (28–33% is a common range). If you charge above the upper quartile, make sure portion size or quality justifies it. *Data: Pricora menu-price database, snapshot October 2026.*
