A proposal, a wedding, a birthday, a family gathering — every occasion in Spain deserves a private chef.
About Private Dining
A Spanish table is meant to be lingered over, not turned around between sittings. UpChef connects you with Spain's finest private chefs — for a Madrid proposal with Iberian lobster and a pause timed to the dessert, a birthday paella for twenty on a Barcelona terrace, a Basque corporate dinner that closes deals, a wedding reception at an Andalusian finca, a villa party on the cliffs of Ibiza. Available across Madrid, Barcelona, Ibiza, Seville, Bilbao, Valencia, and every major Spanish city.
Every occasion
From an intimate dinner for two to a wedding for a hundred — whatever you’re hosting, there’s a chef for it.
How UpChef works
No phone calls, no emails, no waiting days for a reply. Everything happens inside the app — live chat, instant notifications, and real offers from verified chefs near you. Pick whichever way suits you.
Share the details that matter — date, number of guests, cuisine, budget, location, and any dietary needs. It takes about a minute, and there's no obligation to book.
The moment you post, verified chefs around you receive a live notification on their phone. They respond fast — often within minutes — sending you personalised menus and quotes to compare.
Review the offers side by side, chat with the chefs you like to fine-tune the menu, then book the one that's right for you — securely, in a couple of taps.
Browse verified chefs near you by cuisine, occasion, and guest count. See full menus with prices, real reviews from past events, and each chef's signature dishes.
Message the chef directly in the app — no emails, no phone tag. Ask questions, tailor the courses, and get instant replies. The chef can send you a custom offer right in the chat.
Choose a set menu and book in a couple of taps, or accept the chef's custom offer. Your payment is held securely until after the event, so you're always protected.
It all happens inside the app — live chat, instant notifications, and secure payment. Book your private chef in less time than a restaurant reservation takes.
Why a private chef
Picture an evening with no crowded reservation, no drive across town, and no surprise bill at the end. You sit at your own table, in your own home, while a professional chef prepares a meal built around your taste and your occasion.
Book a private chef for an intimate dinner for two, a feast for forty, or a week of healthy meal prep. You choose the menu, the budget, and the mood — we bring the talent to your door.
And because your chef cooks, serves, and cleans up, the only thing you're left with is a memory your guests won't stop talking about.
Restaurant-quality food at home
Menus tailored to your event
Transparent prices, no surprises
The host finally gets to relax
Built on trust
Welcoming someone into your home takes trust. That's why UpChef is built around verification, protection, and transparency at every step — from the first message to the last plate.
Every chef is reviewed before they can take a single booking, and every rating you read comes from a real, completed event.
Payment options depend on the market and booking. Review the total, payment method and cancellation terms before paying. Contact UpChef support if anything is unclear.
Read the cancellation terms that apply to your booking before paying. If your plans change, contact the chef and UpChef support to discuss the next steps.
UpChef was built by people who have worked the kitchen. We take 0% commission from chefs, so the person who cooked your food is paid fairly — and that care lands straight on your plate.
Questions before, during, or after your event? A real support team is one message away in the app, ready to make sure your evening goes exactly the way you imagined it.
