How much is a private/personal chef in the UK?

Customers booking a private or personal chef for an event usually spend £700 for a group of 10 people. The per person pricing varies depending on the number of people and the particular chef's minimum spend.

What is included in the costs of a private chef?

The cost of a private chef covers the cost of Ingredients, meal preparation, cooking, serving, and cleanup.

What equipment do I need to provide for the private chefs?

Mostly yhangry private chefs carry their own equipment, so you won't need to assist with any. However, ensuring the basic cooking amenities like blenders, stoves and crockery are available is essential.

Do I need to provide ingredients or the private chef will get it?

You can provide your own ingredients if you're seeking to lower the overall expense. However, yhangry private chefs mostly bring their own freshly-sourced ingredients and premium-quality meats to prepare scrumptious meals.

What type of ingredients do the private chefs use?

Most chefs have their favourite suppliers for specific produce. Simply ask the chef you're looking to book about where they source their produce and let them know if you have a particular preference, e.g. for organic ingredients.

Does the private chef bring waitstaff?

Depending on the size of your group, the chef might bring waitstaff at their discretion. If you definitely want waitstaff, simply mention this in your request and ask the chef to include this in their quote.

What is the minimum spend

Personal and private chefs on yhangry set their own minimum spend which ranges depending on the chefs experience. The lowest minimum spend by any chef on the platform is £200, the majority of chefs have a minimum spend between £500-£1000. Some chefs have a minimum spend of £3000.
