Client FAQs

Relish Chefs helps you discover private chefs and catering professionals for everything from meals at home and dinner parties to larger events and cookery experiences. Browse profiles, explore menus and get in touch with a chef who suits your needs.

Chefs are listed by location. If your preferred location isn't available, it means we don't currently have a chef registered there. We're continuing to build our network.

You can browse chef profiles without an account. When you find someone you're interested in, you'll need to create an account to contact them.

Alternatively, use our Find a Chef form to tell us about your event, location, group size, budget and requirements. We can then help connect you with a suitable chef.

We can either review your enquiry and suggest a suitable chef or make it available to matching chefs through our system.

For a personal introduction, we'll ask your permission before passing your details to the selected chef. With system matching, suitable chefs can respond through the platform, and the first three to contact you are considered for the enquiry.

Explore each profile to compare experience, menus, photographs, services and prices. Check that the chef offers what you need, and discuss any specific requirements before agreeing to a booking.

Prices vary depending on the chef, location, type of service, group size and your requirements. Profiles show minimum prices to help you compare chefs, but these aren't confirmed quotes. Your final price will be agreed directly with the chef.

Yes. Discuss your preferred menu, dietary requirements, allergies and any other needs with the chef before confirming your booking. Make sure you explain any important requirements clearly so the chef can confirm what they can accommodate.

Once you've been introduced, you deal directly with the chef to agree the menu, service, final price, date and other arrangements. You also agree the payment method, currency and payment terms directly with them.

Relish Chefs currently introduces clients to chefs; it doesn't process payments or manage bookings.

No. There is no charge to clients for using Relish Chefs.

Contact your chef directly as soon as possible. Any changes, cancellation terms or potential charges should be discussed with the chef and will depend on the arrangements you've agreed.

Please contact your chef first about any booking or service issue. If you're concerned about your experience or feel you've been let down, you can also contact us at info@relishchefs.com. Your feedback helps us monitor the quality of the platform.

Where reviews are available, you can read them on the chef's profile before making your decision.

We review profiles and carry out some checks using publicly available information, but we don't conduct formal background checks or independently verify every chef's qualifications, experience, insurance or certificates. We encourage you to discuss any important requirements directly with your chosen chef.

You can browse profiles without an account, but you need one to contact a chef or submit a Find a Chef enquiry. Registration requires your first name, last name and email address. Your address and profile image are optional.

We use your information to operate the platform and help connect you with suitable chefs. Depending on how your enquiry is handled, relevant details may be shared with chefs being considered for your event. Please read our Privacy Policy for details of what information is shared and how it is used.
