Our Chef, Lewis was spot on, explained what he was cooking, also when it would be ready.
He explained what each dish was, and if spicy or not.
Food was amazing, everyone in our party really enjoyed the experience.
Would I use Lewis again…yes.
Would I use Poptop again yes.
Communication from both Poptop and Lewis was A1.
The menu was exactly as listed but with a few tweaks the chef did to make it his own. The overall experience was perfect- Andy our chef was great. Very professional and friendly as well as being able to cope with the air B and B kitchen set up and the fact that he was basically cooking in front of us for the whole night.
We've already said we would use the service again and we're looking forward to picking the option for the menu.
Smooth and easy to complete with poptop and dine indulge
The whole event was excellent. The chef was friendly and informative and the food was superb. Left the kitchen spotlessly clean.
Jakub was brilliant from start to finish and we all had a fantastic evening. Thank you.
Phillip was a wonderful chef. The food was marvellous and incredibly tasty. Dineindulge adapted to meet our different dietary requirements and were very quick at communicating and explaining the different options available to us. We all had a wonderful evening and would highly recommend it.
Sam, the chef who is also a director of the company was amazing. He really pushed the boat out for us and made every course special. He was also so willing and accommodating in everything in the kitchen and helpful and left the place beautifully tidy for us. It was a no brainer to book this event with your company and we’re ever so grateful for how special Sam made it.
The company were super responsive and helpful, the chef, Adam was great, very relaxed and the food was amazing! We would 100% book again 😊
Adam was incredible - he gave us just the best meal for our hen do and every course was delicious and brought at perfect timings. He was just brilliant
Booking process was easy and clear. A couple of days before the event, comms were sent to make sure we were prepped eg leave 2 shelves in the fridge for the chef, chef arrival time, tipping etiquette etc. customer service was quick to respond to any questions. On the day, chef called beforehand to check if we had any questions, they arrived on time with all the ingredients and left leaving the kitchen spotless. During the night the service was top, they used the tools in the kitchen freely so not to disturb us.
Great service!
Great service!
The booking was very smooth and simple. The menus and pricing were very clearly laid out so you felt comfortable that all was above board. The chef turned up exactly on time and the food was cooked and presented beautifully and all the washing up was done so the kitchen was perfect when she left. Although we only bought an entry level package, it felt very special and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It measured up very well against faffing with taxis or minibuses in our rural location and the cost of a restaurant meal. We shall use them again.
Would definitely do this again. The chef was friendly, thorough and the food was fantastic.
This far exceeded our expectations
The chef was on time, organised and left the kitchen spotlessly clean.
The food was beautifully presented, delicious and very generous portions.
Excellent value for money but slightly too fast, the whole meal was completed in an hour, I would prefer some time between courses.
We had a fantastic dinner cooked by Chef Sam - the food was all absolutely delicious and he was great to work with - very friendly and left the kitchen sparkling! We'd definitely book him again next time we're down!
SO GOOD. Easy to book, on-point communications, service and food quality was excellent.....highly recommend.
Great service!
We hired Andy for my wife’s birthday at an amazing Air BNB in Cornwall. He was punctual, very professional and very friendly. He was happy to take pictures for us and with us. Thank you so much for making the day so special Andy. We were all still full the next morning for breakfast.
Good service would use again.
Thank you to our lovely chefs who made our 30th birthday extra special. They were lovely, professional and served good food!
Great service!
We chose to have the 9 course tasting menu as a special family dinner celebration treat. It was different to anything we've done before but we were so glad we did it as it was such a unique experience that we will all remember.
Our chef Susan was very professional and friendly and the food she made was so tasty. Portion sizes were perfect and the combinations of flavours delicious!
Would definitely recommend!
Excellent service!
I was so impressed with the two ladies that attended, the food was outstanding, we cleared all plates, they made us feel at ease in our home as thought it may be awkward eating in front of someone that just made it but it wasn’t I put our 3 kids to bed, got changed & could then enjoy a gorgeous meal with my hubby in piece. The two ladies were so polite, they explained each dish nicely & cleaned my kitchen at end & even left me some for fridge. Highly recommend amazing service 5 stars! Xxx
Great service!
Great communication with Dineindulge throughout our booking and a lovely meal prepared by the private chef for my friends hen do. We were waited on throughout each course with the added bonus of the washing up being done was amazing! 5 star service for an in-house chef.
Great friendly chef was punctual and provided excellent meal! Would definitely recommend and book again.

Amazing experience!
Everything went so smoothly from my first search of your site to our amazing chef Nathan arriving at the hardest holiday home to find, right on time, and cooking the most amazing dinner - thank you so much for putting us together and helping create a birthday to remember!!
Really great service, food and so friendly. Thank you!
Outstanding from start to finish. We arranged this as a 'surprise' for our good friends and Georgi delivered on every aspect. Bev was 'blown away' to quote her. The food was amazing and Georgi is a true professional in every way. If we could award 10 stars we would. We will certainly be using Georgi again in the not too distant future and would highly recommend him. Many thanks, The Ratcliffe
We ordered the wine pairing to go with our meal yet we didn't receive anything to tell us what wine went which meal. The chef made a guess but he said this should of been provided.
Great Experience
Fantastic experience! Food was great. Would definitely do again
Our Chef Michael was very prompt, the food was delicious then like a fairy he even cleaned the kitchen and filled the dishwasher.
A great experience- fantastic chef and delicious good
It was a great event, chef was excellent, amazing!
The whole evening celebrating our friends special birthday was absolutely made that more incredible by having your dining and chef experience. The whole evening was fluid without any issues, each course, plated looked like a work of art and was absolutely delicious. Adam was a delight to have in our kitchen, no fuss, no mess a pleasure. I would recommend Dineindulge to everyone (infact I have) and I would use you again in a heartbeat. Thank you

Great communication from company! Chef Paul phoned day before and he was outstanding! The food was delicious and beautiful! Would highly recommend this as something different and enjoyable to do!
The chef was excellent. He was courteous, friendly, served at just the right pace and left the kitchen spotlessly clean. This was a surprise meal for a special birthday and it couldn't have gone better.
Had a wonderful evening- food was amazing. Lewis was professional - interacted with all the guest.wish I could give more than 5 stars I was more than I expected Thank You
Had a lovely time start to finish. Our chef was professional, charming, and ensured we had the best experience! Was a great treat for a special occasion - would highly reccomend
Can't fault the chef alan was great however I think the food for the amount of money possibly didn't quite match up. Also the chicken main could have done with some sort of sauce
Had an amazing time , everything couldn’t have been better. Food was great, chef Kevin was brillant. So friendly and really made our evening. Will definitely be recommending. Thankyou DineInDulge top marks.
We had a lovely evening, good and service could not be faulted! Would definitely consider this again for a special occasion.
An amazing night, the chef was brilliant and looked after everything.
All the guests said what an amazing time they had.
The food was excellent.
This was the first time we had a chef at our home but it was wel worth it. We will for sure due this more often instead having to clock and clean you actually have time to have a party! Great experience.
Wonderful experience, our chef was very friendly. Service was excellent and the food was too. He left the kitchen tidy and it was a real treat on our staycation.
Our Chef Greig, was brilliant
He was punctual, professional and very tidy, did a fantastic job.

relaxed and as a result all of us had a truly fabulous evening, and I could enjoy being the host and entertain me guest.
Over all, Great service - excellent chef - fabulous food - highly recommend.
Fantastic meal and service provided throughout. I was quite late in booking the meal, and therefore slightly delayed in finalising the payment and menu choices. The customer service team were very accommodating.
On the night our chef, Mark, was very professional and served us up a delicious 5-course meal for 6 people, none of us left a morsel! The kitchen was left spotless, and we had a great evening. Would highly recommend, and will definitely use the service again in the future.
Wow great experience just one snag dietary requirements missed but dealt with swiftly at service.

Carl was just perfect for our Hen party he had a lot to put up with very loud girls ha ha
But he just got on with it and everything was wonderful . Thank you .
Fabulous evening, amazing food made by Hamza. Great service throughout, Round of applause from all the diners at the end of the meal. Worth every penny.
Really enjoyed the whole experience and the chef was both discreet and professional at all times. Will definitely arrange again!
Outstanding on every level! Communication before the event, quality of the food and cooking by the chef. Highly recommend.
We had a the best night and our chef was outstanding. It was great value for money and super efficient.
We were absolutely spoilt. The food was amazing and Paula our chef was lovely. It was so wonderful not to have to clear everything up.
The variations of courses were ideal and the risotto was delicious. A really wonderful experience that we'll repeat.

Great service, thank you to Chiara and Dineindulge.
Excellent work Chef Johno! Great flavours and very accommodating....thanks for making it such a special evening! Cheers!
The chef was a nice guy but the food wasn’t quite as good as we expected. Didn’t justify the price paid
Our chef was lovely, the food was delicious and we had an overall incredible experience!
Overall the service was good. The chef was friendly and her food tasted really really good and was well presented on the plate.
The downside however came after the event and when we went into the kitchen. The dishes had to be redone as they were not clean. The cooker had to be cleaned as it was dirty (oily and greasy). We later discovered that our spatula had partially melted, it must have been placed on a hot hob as one of the hobs has what looks like melted plastic on it. This was quite disappointing as cleaning up after is promoted heavily by Dineindulge.
Food was great and we had a lovely evening all round. Kitchen was left clean and tidy afterwards. Thanks very much for your help
Food was cooked splendidly and presented well. I think maybe just more menu choices right from the start perhaps.
Lovely Chef, we choose the Christmas menu and had a great evening.
Food was fantastic, our chef Pete was unobtrusive and very polite. We had the 9 course dinner for 4, and all enjoyed every dish. A couple of points to improve and take the experience from a 4 to a 5: chef arrived half an hour late (no big deal for us on the day), and chef could have announced each dish as it came out - we had to rely on the online menu at times. Finally there were a few items on the menu that were not available - Pete explained what was different and it was due to wanting to give us the freshest ingredients - it all tasted great so we really didn’t mind. Overall would recommend.
There was no real stuff cooked at home, everything was takeaway and very quick. Whole meal / event lasted 1h .. disappointed from the experience
Cancelled on week of event
Cancelled by Dineindulge. Deposit not yet refunded and despite copy emails to pop top you don’t seem to have acknowledged the cancellation!! Nor to be ready to return the deposit.
This event was cancelled 4 days before and I am still awaiting my deposit refund. Deeply disappointing
My event was cancelled by Dineindulge 3 days before the event due to unforeseen circumstances.
Our chef cancelled with less than 24 hours before the event so we ended up having take-away pizzas for our celebration. I wasn’t going to complain but you have asked me for a review and that is what happened. Dine Indulge have offered me £100 credit as compensation, which I am grateful for and will use. However, I would be reluctant to end up in the same position again. It could have been a disaster!
The chef was okay but the quality of the actual food was really poor, fillet steak was inedible and the cod was like a baby food also Inedible. The starter was cold overall very disappointed and wouldn’t use this service or recommend again.
A private chef experience for parties and private events.

Yes. You have as late as 14 days before the bookings takes place to finalise your menu and bookings details.

Dineindulge is a private chef experience where our chefs will go into clients homes or accommodation and prepare, cook and serve their chosen meal and then do a full clean down afterwards. In short we provide a restaurant quality experience at a restaurant price but in the comfort of their own home or accommodation.
Each menu will carry a minimum spend before the price per head listed can apply. The difference will be added toy our quote as a minimum spend charge. In order to provide our service we have minimum costs that need to be covered, which include booking out a private chef for a day so they can plan your meal, purchase the food, prepare it, travel to the location and then cook and serve your chosen menu on site then cleaning down before they finish.
Children (under 12s) can be added to any menu for 50% of the menu price per head, for either a smaller portion or a simplified version of the menu. This can be discussed with the Events team once you have confirmed your booking. Alternatively, if you'd prefer to provide your own food for the children this is absolutely fine and obviously there is no charge by us for this.
