Private dining experience
Signature and bespoke private dining
Our private chef services are delivered by a small team of chefs based in Suffolk, working regularly across East Anglia and available throughout the UK. We offer a signature private dining menu, priced as a complete package, alongside a bespoke private chef service for more personalised occasions.
Designed for dinners at home, boutique weddings, celebrations and holiday stays, our private chef experiences focus on seasonal food, thoughtful planning and relaxed hosting, making it easy to choose a set menu or tailor your experience.
Signature Dining
Our most popular private chef experience
A carefully designed seasonal menu, offered as a complete package with built-in choices, makes hosting simple and stress-free, from welcoming canapés through to the final course.
Our chefs handle everything, from sourcing and cooking to serving and leaving your kitchen spotless. The experience includes simple table styling with seasonal flower posies, creating a relaxed, beautiful table with minimal planning. Optional wine pairings can be added.
Ideal for dinners at home, celebrations and gatherings where you want exceptional food without the fuss.
Bespoke Dining
A fully tailored private chef service
For occasions that need a more individual approach, our bespoke service is designed entirely around you by our Director chef Lily Benbow. Menus are created from scratch, with greater flexibility throughout the planning process.
Additional elements can include canapé receptions, cocktail service, crockery and glassware hire, table linens, printed menus, place name cards and professional floral arrangements. Optional wine pairings are also available.
Best suited to boutique weddings, milestone celebrations and larger gatherings where a fully personalised approach is required.
