The BEST private dinner!

Guido and Jo were a pleasure to work with before, during, and after our spectacular Thanksgiving meal. DO NOT miss out on the canapes to kick off the meal. Amazing experience all around. They did everything ... we just relaxed!

Great evening great chef

If anyone is thinking about booking a chef then this is your one.
The service, the food, the presentation is all fantastic.
The chef himself is friendly, gets on with the service and clears up after him.
It is just like being in a top class restaurant but in the comfort of your home or holiday cottage
Thank you so much

What a great experience we had with the Cotswold Chef!

What a great experience we had with the Cotswold Chef to celebrate a 50th birthday. 12 friends came together for a feast and it was a feast to remember. From the canepes to the dessert each course was an absolute delight, my personal favourite was the crusted pulled lamb shoulder. Both Guido and Jo were anonymous throughout the evening allowing friends to just enjoy the food and company. After the meal the kitchen was cleaned as if no co one had been in there. Would highly recommended Cotswold Chef if you are in the area for a special occasion.

Private Hen dinner!

I literally couldn’t praise Guido and the team anymore, they were simply amazing from booking right through to a fantastic dinner! They cooked for 24 of us and 4 of which were gluten free which was no trouble! Amazing team and will definitely use them again!!

70th Birthday Celebration

We organised a private chef to celebrate our mum’s 70th birthday and it was a superb experience! Guido the chef created a delicious 4-course meal. From start to finish it was 5* service with the way he presented each course to us, along with detailed descriptions. I would highly recommend booking a private chef through this company. Already looking forward to visiting the Cotswolds again and booking another private chef experience with this company.

Diamond Anniversary Dinner

We all enjoyed your delicious food and your service made for a very relaxed meal. It made our family celebration a great success.

Our experience of working with you to plan and arrange the celebration meal was very straightforward.

A fantastic experience

We hired The Cotswolds Chef to cook for us as part of my mum’s 60th birthday celebration, and wow, what a great experience! The food was excellent (we had canapés followed by four courses), beautifully seasoned and presented and everyone loved it. Guido the chef was so friendly and explained each dish really well, and he made us all feel very comfortable. We’ve never used a private chef before but The Cotswolds Chef really made the whole experience so enjoyable and memorable! We would definitely recommend them for any occasion.

We ordered the Relax menu for my Mum's 60th Birthday. The food was fantastic, Guido the chef was super friendly and we were so impressed by the service. He arrived at our airbnb on time and left the kitchen exactly how he found it. The company were very helpful in the run up to the day and made sure all our requests were met. Would definitely recommend this company for anyone in the area looking to do something special for a loved one.

The perfect wedding dinner!

We picked Jo and Guido to cater for our small wedding dinner. They were great at communicating before the big day, they arrived with everything that they needed on the day and the food was amazing! All of our guests loved it and they left everything super clean and tidy before they left on the evening. Would highly recommend!

Simply superb

Extensive menus to choose from, super friendly chef and staff who provided superb service and absolutely delicious food, including vegetarian, simply for our celebration weekend away dinner for 15 of us, aged from 3 to 73. Would definitely recommend wholeheartedly. My only regret is that they are based too far away from our home for us to use here!

A wonderful evening with Guido

A wonderful evening with Guido. He cooked an exceptional meal for 10 of us. Arriving promptly, all we had to do was let him in the door, from then on it was seamless and he just got on with it also leaving the kitchen spotless.
The food was presented beautifully, it tasted as good as any top restaurant! He is also a very lovely guy! Would highly recommend :)

Absolutely excellent

We had the most amazing experience with Chef Guido, he was extremely professional, on time, came with everything he needed and just got on with it. The food was also delicious and done with such finesse. Every single guest loved the experience! We cannot wait to use chef Guido again.
