William G.

The best private chef service!! Had booked for NYE and the food and service was just amazing! Recommend them so much!!

Sophia

The food was fabulous and Charles was amazing. We opted for a 5-course taster menu for my 40th Birthday. It was a bespoke menu Charles created after we discussed food preferences. I could not recommend him enough!!!

A delicious Spanish-themed feast for 17 people! What a talent! Charles designed, prepared and delivered a wonderful menu for us for my daughter's birthday. He was able to accommodate dietary requirements with ease (which was amazing for me). On top of producing a really delicious meal he was quick to reply to messages, send menu ideas and keep me updated on the evening. He also (equally important to me) kept the kitchen clean and tidy! Charles is incredibly easy to deal with and I would recommend him without hesitation.

Christina P.

I really appreciated the flexibility and fast replies to my questions. Charles accommodated our change of date twice without fuss! Additionally, when we asked to remove the cheese & crackers from the menu and adjust the total price, he has done that promptly. He also circulated the menus as PDF which is helpful to add into email invites. My manager mentioned the evening went very smoothly and the food was absolutely fantastic ! I would 100% knock on his door again for future events. Finally, the fact that he was able to communicate via different channels ie: Nomad chat function, email , and text message also made it very easy to coordinate details. Thanks Charles !! Christina

We had Charlie cook for a weekend house party in Warwickshire. Communication beforehand was very good, his suggested menus were exactly what we wanted and he was willing and able to accommodate some last minute additional guests. Dinner for 14 on Saturday evening was a triumph (Beef Wellington to die for) followed up with a delicious brunch on Sunday morning to send our guests on their way. To top it all, he left the kitchens in a better state than he found them. We will certainly be booking Charlie again.

Phenomenal every course! Charles created a stunning fish & seafood focused menu for my summer birthday party, and I was absolutely blown away. A particular highlight was the XL Scallop with caviar starter, but every course had rave reviews from my guests. Presentation was absolutely perfect too.

VIP BBQ for a Pool Party! WOWEE - where to even start. Charlie curated the most gorgeous bespoke BBQ menu for 35 of us on Saturday. There was a bit of everything for everyone, personal favourites were bone marrow, scallops and mussels. The canapés were gorgeously presented and just tasted so fresh, I was honestly blown away by it all and my friends have been commenting non stop, I will be seeing you for my next event!

Cyrill S.

Great communication beforehand, fantastic ingredients and well selected menu and very pleasant, professional and efficient service on the night. Highly recommend.

Xavier D.

Amazing birthday party! Charlie’s food is out of this world. Simply stunning. If you want a really amazing gourmet experience and fun dinner party, book him. He’s a lovely man too.

Vicky R.

Epic food, a true professional Charles made hosting our event so easy, amazing food and superb service. Definitely recommend!

Lauren

Delicious! Amazing service and incredible quality of food. The prawns, mussels and lamb were absolutely delicious. Thank you so much! Highly recommend!

Lorne B.

Excellent food and service! An amazing night . The food was perfect and an amazing attention to details

Anna B.

All the guests equally were so pleased. Especially the scallops and macaroni and cheese! He created a menu with lots of variety and fitting to our theme. His kitchen helper was also excellent at his job and Charles organised everything very smoothly. Would love to use the chef again for a private dinner next time, as we had a party with 35 guests this time. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Joy A.

Fabulous food and wonderful service! We absolutely loved having Charles and his colleague Alistair cater for us - they were both completely professional and also really helpful and friendly. I was worried it would be odd having someone else in the kitchen while we were in and out but they put us completely at ease. And the food was AMAZING. Would definitely recommend.

Laura

Charlie catered for my 30th birthday weekend and was absolutely fantastic. He is an extremely professional and highly skilled chef. My guests were blown away by his amazing, quality food and service.

Jane W.

Charlie was absolutely amazing! He was extremely professional and the food was exceptional. He made the at home dining experience everything and more than myself and guests expected. I can’t wait to book him again.

Dilveer P.

We had a great event thanks to Charles. He really made it a special occasion. He was efficient, polite, excellent at his job. The food was amazing - so beautiful and professional. Presentation was gorgeous. Exactly what we asked for. A lovely occasion made by Charles. He even made fishfingers and a bacon sandwich for the kids! Nothing was too much trouble. The wine that was recommended was unusual and absolutely gorgeous.

Lobster rolls for the win! Absolutely stellar evening. Charles crafted the perfect night for a fun birthday dinner with mates. Easy to deal with in the build up, Charles was more than happy to tweak the menu to cater for all tastes. On the night Charles and team were brilliant, the food was absolutely delicious and the lobster rolls stole the show. Spot on!

Andrew P.

Charles and team were excellent at every step. We had a wine tasting for my wife and 14 friends for her birthday. He curated a menu to pair with the wines but also to cater to her requests and dietary requirements. It was a complete home run! Definitely will be a repeat customer!

Cathy H.

Charles was great. Punctual, personable, organised and a great chef. We all really loved his food and had a wonderful time celebrating a friend's 50th.
