FAQS ABOUT PRIVATE CHEFS in Boston
How much does a private chef in Boston cost?
The cost ranges depending on your group size and event details with tiered pricing used according to the headcount for your event. For most menus, you can expect to pay between $59 and over $100 per person. Next to each listed experience that is available on this page, you will see a starting cost per person price displayed for the experience. That price will automatically adjust based on your group size. In addition to the base cost of the dinner, there is also a local sales tax that is applied. Connect with our concierge team to get answers to your specific questions about the cost of a private chef for a dinner party or similar special occasion.
What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
Your Boston chef will shop for the necessary ingredients to create your chosen menu and bring them to the event site. They’ll prepare the meal in the onsite kitchen space, including specialty tools that may come into play during the process. They’ll also provide table service during the dinner to keep your guests satisfied as the evening unfolds and clean up once dinner is finished. It’s an experience similar to a catered dinner that takes the work out of your hands, allowing you to spend time enjoying your guests without lifting a finger.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
When you hire a chef for dinner, Asian fare like sushi and regional street food favorites, classic Italian and French spreads and steakhouse-style dining are all popular options provided by private chefs around the city. You’ll also find menus featuring fresh seafood caught nearby and transformed into meals that rival popular Boston restaurants like Atlantic Fish Company and Saltie Girl. And with a focus on fantastic American specialties, you can choose from domestic and global possibilities prepared with a gourmet touch. There are also several Michelin-star-caliber menus available that offer the best that luxury dining has to offer. You can even find vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options to entice specialty diners.
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
To hire an in-home chef or a private chef for a dinner party, simply browse this page to explore the list of available chefs, menus, and dates near you. Choose the option that best fits your preferences, then click the “Contact Chef” button to reach out and learn more or start the booking process. If you have specific requests and need customized service, our concierge team is available to help you discuss the possibilities.
How much should I tip my private chef?
Tipping is not required. If you choose to leave a tip, you can do so with a rate between 10% and 25% of the cost of your experience. Though gratuity isn’t required, it’s a thoughtful way to express your gratitude and is sure to be appreciated by your chef.
Where do the experiences take place?
When you book an in-home chef for a dinner party, you are hiring the chef to cook at your home dining space, though alternative venues around the city are also possibilities. Wherever your preferred locale may be, your chef will require a clean, working kitchen with functional appliances to ensure a well-prepared meal. With so many exciting quarters around the Boston area, you can enjoy a dinner party in Back Bay, throw a supper club gathering in Cambridge or arrange a celebratory feast in North End.
