Private Chef

What do I offer?

I offer a unique & truly

special experience brought directly to your home or

holiday let.

I combine a personal chef hire service with fine dining restaurant quality cuisine, which is designed to be affordable, accessible & simple for you.

In my role of a private chef, I will take care of everything, such as purchasing the ingredients and preparing the dishes. Subsequently, I complete the plated service in your kitchen and I will tidy up the kitchen before leaving. This service allows you to entertain your friends or family, which has never been so simple and stress-free.

Dinner Parties

Please browse my menu selection please note these menus are a guideline of the style of catering I offer.

I can create a menu that is to meet the needs and requirements of specifications for your event.

Making a booking of a personal chef will bring the restaurant to you

Julian will prepare and cook for you in your own home or holiday let. Therefore, unlike in a restaurant where the chef/s cater for a large number of different groups of people, a personal chef is catering specifically for you, the customer who booked them, and your guests.

When you book Private chef Lake district you can relax in the knowledge that wherever you are, we’ll provide you with the best private chef available who is more than capable of delivering the restaurant-quality experience you desire in the comfort of your own home.

Recent Reviews

Julian cooked for 17 of us for our wedding meal and it was a fantastic experience.

Everyone commented afterwards how amazing they thought all the food was and the whole team were very efficient

and put up with three toddlers charging around as well!

Would definitely recommend Julian and his team!

Fantastic and friendly service - couldn’t have asked for more!

Julian provided some jaw-dropping food for a group of 10 friends at our holiday rental,

we were all still talking about the apple tart days later!

Very happy to chat through the food with us and also work around our needs and requirements,

both in advance of the evening and during the evening.

Would recommend wholeheartedly.

I rarely leave reviews but felt Julian absolutely deserved a stunning review.

We booked Julian for our second trip to Cumbria but this time for 3 nights. He exceeded our expectations. Every dish he made was excellent - delicious, beautifully presented and of top quality. He tailored the menu for my very fussy family.

He did a Covid test and wore a mask at all times. He and his staff were professional, friendly and accommodating

and created a very comfortable environment.

Will definitely book Julian again (for holidays and for private dining at home) and would highly recommend.

Cannot praise enough.

Oh wow…what an amazing experience!
We booked Julian for my Mum’s 70th birthday celebrations in The Lakes and we were not disappointed.
From start to finish it was more than we could have hoped for - we were so well looked after by Julian & Annabelle and the food was another level. Beautifully prepared local
produce that tasted sublime.
If you’re looking for the ultimate foodie experience then look no further!!
Thank you Julian, Saturday night made our weekend

Julian & his team catered a meal for my Parents 60th wedding anniversary at a farmhouse we'd rented for the weekend. We contacted Julian a few times before the event and all questions were answered promptly. He arrived at the time agreed and quickly got to work creating a fabulous meal. Very friendly team and the service was impeccable. Highly recommended

My parents loved it and it was the highlight of the weekend. Would highly recommend.
