Unlike many agencies that inflate their margins by charging an hourly markup on the chefs pay rates, we do things differently.

We offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. Our fully transparent pricing model ensures there are no hidden fees - what you see is exactly what you pay.

We understand how frustrating it can be to navigate hidden fees, surprise costs, and unclear pricing models. That’s why we’ve made it a priority to provide clear, upfront pricing from the start - no surprises, no fine print.

Our charges are made up of the Chef's hourly rate + their Employer's NI & Pension Contribution at 17.2% + just a £28 per shift agency fee

Next time you need cover in the kitchen with transparent costs, our reliable relief chefs can help.

We do not hide our margins and our only incentive is to place the best possible chef with you to suit your budget.
