What our clients say

This was the second time we had The Bespoke Chef catering for us. The food was once again spectacular.Jacob gets on and gets the job done with a minimum of fuss (none!). The hardest part was choosing which items we would have off the menu!Jacob works discreetly, and tidily.Thanks again Courtney and Jacob!!

December 2022 was the third time that we have had Jacob and his team cater functions for us. The first time was a five years ago, the standard of food and service then was excellent, the second time was 3 years ago, and all was excellent then as well. The last function was also excellent.Just to complicate things for Jacob we had some important dietary requirements on each occasion that had to be catered for. This was done superbly and really appreciated by us.It's fantastic to have a person/business that can maintain such high standards over a continuous time period.If you are looking to have a private function catered for as we have done, then I highly recommend Jacob and the team at The Bespoke Chief to you.

This was our first experience with The Bespoke Chef. Catering was for 18 people in our home. We were extremely pleased with every aspect of the service that Jacob provided. His food was delicious and the way he went about organising, presenting and clearing away, we could not fault. In addition, Jacob was delightful in interacting with us and our guests. Thank you Jacob! We would not hesitate to have you again.

Jacob and his team are just the best in all respects. So good to work with, nothing is a bother and the food - well, the food is absolutely beautiful. The team is relaxed, totally professional and our guests were blown away by the quality of Jacobs feast. After hosting several events and using different caterers, I highly recommend The Bespoke Chef - you will definitely not be disappointed with these guys.

I can't share photos because I was too busy eating. But hands down best service for my wedding at brittam stables. Canapés so delicious. Food was amazing. My brother who has traveled the world eating and even at Gordon Ramsey said 1 of the best meals he has eaten.I would get married again just to have another feed. Lol. Oh and the chef and his team are so together and relaxed and helpful it's a great vibe to add to what can be a hectic day.

Jacob and Courtney were beyond amazing to deal with! Nothing was an issue, Jacob put up with some last minute changes due to the weather and nailed it! We even had people asking for the recipes. Wait staff were very polite and did a great job especially putting up with the rain... I couldn't recommend The Bespoke Chef enough - I can see why you have won awards for Outstanding Caterer of the Year.

I have been really enjoying the new delivery menu that has just been launched by The Bespoke Chef. It has been so nice to come home from work to a lovely nutritious home cooked meal that I can just heat and serve. This week we had the Beef Bourguignon with mash potato and carrots and a cheeky Sticky Date - It was all delicious and the sticky date was next level! We also had a few friends over and enjoyed a Bespoke Feast a few weeks ago! Everyone raved about the food. I would highly recommend the Bespoke Chef to anyone wanting to take the hassle out of putting a delicious and healthy meal on the table for your family! The food is amazing. The delivery service is easy and convenient and the communication is always quick & professional.
