I love Yhangry and have worked with them for over 2 years now. The people they employ are amazing as are the 2 founders. My only niggle is the % they take from each booking. I feel it’s too high espec... See more

We were all really impressed with our chef for the evening, it was the icing on the cake to a fabulous weekend. Great communication with the team and chef before the event paid off, everything ran seamlessly and the service was exceptional! The meat and fish were superb and the sort of thing you find in the very best restaurants and the presentation had us all taking photos all night. Would recommend, absolutely.
Amazing experience
Delicious quality ingredients and we all loved the food. Amazing stuff. I would use again and recommend to ally friends.
WARNING!
We recently had Chef Samuel R (from Malmsbury) to cook for us. It was supposed to be a special birthday celebration. What a disaster!
My husband initially gave a good review on their website as on the face of it things "appeared" to have gone ok.
That was until I inspected my oven a couple of days later!!!!
My beautiful Brushed Steel Rangemaster oven (that I had lovingly polished and cherrished for more than 23 years) had been destroyed by Samuel R by using a scourer to the entire oven top during cleaning!
Can you believe a professional chef didn't know how to clean brushed steel and would treat your possessions in such a disrespectful manner (and then lie about it)! No, neither did we!
Yhangry dissapontingly decided to take the word of a Chef over their customer!
Chef Samuel R continually lied and deny any knowledge of what he had done. He even sent an unwarranted derogatory response to the situation which Yhangry quite rightly chastised him for.
Yhangry were quite frankly worse than useless in trying to help resolve this issue and point blank refused to use their insurance as they needed undeniable proof that the chef had caused the damage! How?
MY ADVICE: To anyone thinking of using Yhangry is to make sure that you take photographs of all of your kitchen equipment before the chef arrives. You then need to take a video of your chef while they are cooking and cleaning so that you don't find yourselves in the uneviable situation that we now find ourselves in!
If you do not take photgraphic evidence, you won't have a leg to stand on should your chef damage any of your property.
Yhangry's 24 hour notice policy still would not have made a difference if your chef decides to lie as Samuel R did!
Yhangry didn't even have the decency to repsond to our last email either.
Very poor customer service.
We are now having to spent a fortune tyring to find a specialist who can try to rectify the damage that one of Yhangry's chef's have caused!
PLEASE take this as a warning and use a different company for your special event (if you do not want to be left angry and you value your home and property)!
We are at present taking legal advice.

Warning to chefs - SCAM
Warning to chefs, don't waste your time with this platform. They keep sending fake requests to the chefs. A company that promises a lot and is an absolute disaster.

Sent an email enquiry- no one has bothered to answer from yhangry. Very disappointing - as I was willing to pay what it costs for a professional chef for my event.

The chef didn't turn up!
The chef didn't turn up for my 70th birthday celebration meal with my family. I had planned this occasion for months and had finalised the menu with the chef a few days before the event. I even offered to pick her up from the station so she would have help carrying everything.
She didn't contact me again even after I left several messages and rang her direct line.
Additionally yhangry support didn't send the printed menus in time for the event.
When I rang yhangry support after she was a no show at the expected time, they were very helpful and apologetic, they couldn't get hold of the chef either. They did process my refund immediately but we were left having to get take-away pizzas!!
Luckily, I have a very understanding family and we still had a happy evening together.

Outstanding Experience of Culinary Delight
We had the pleasure of having Chef Thomas cook for our celebratory evening, and he truly exceeded our expectations. He was punctual, personable, and friendly—an absolute professional from start to finish. The food was exceptional, showcasing his outstanding culinary skills, and he left the kitchen spotless afterward. Thomas played a huge part in making our evening extra special, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Highly recommended!

Strongly recommend Chris Chef
Strongly recommend Chris Chef! Just been on a hen weekend in Cumbria and Chris cooked a variety of tapas and deserts for 9 of us! Delicious and very tasty. All prepared, served and cleaned up. Would definitely rebook.

Our chef cancelled two days before our event. I'd been in regular contact with her and we were totally blindsided by the cancellation. It was such short notice we didn't have time to find a replacement. So disappointed.
Yhangry have tried to say they offered replacement chefs, we didn't get any notification of a replacement.

What an incredible experience
What an incredible experience! From planning through to our event (an informal yet stunning evening of food and friends), Yhangry and our chef made sure everything was perfect and we all raved about the food. We followed the advice of others on trust pilot and chose our chef after reading his reviews and he was an absolute star, so accommodating and the food was sooooo good. A night to remember!

Beware
We did not receive our servive. They claim we never went the correct way of ordering but we were unaware of this as the Chef that we chose from their advertised chefs messaged us on the platform provided with his email so he could send us over an updated menu and we proceeded from there. No red flags for us and then he did not show up for me friend anniversary. He was apparently in a car crash but we have since been totally ghosted by him.
Even if yhangry say they have no responsibility for this (which I feel they should be somehow accountable or some fall back for a faulty system) the point is the customer service I received was absolutely shocking. They never responded when I asked for assistance (give the person their due who picked up the phone was helpful but certainly not the person on the other end of the email) so unprofessional and very poor business ethics.
If you do choose please be very careful how and to whom you pay and be ready for potential poor customer service. We were gutted being scammed and even if they does not fall on yhangery, just a bit of human empathy would have been appreciated.
The answer to this review has lies within it and is a case-in-point as per the customer service.
I have never once passed blame and just asked for help whilst the situation was ongoing not after and I received a torrent of negativity.
It appears that when this company works and things go according to plan then great but when it doesn't go according to their plan the service is shocking.
No help, no empathy, no trust and yet you remove your chef who apparently was in a crash? How is he doing BTW?

Yhangry & Me..
I have been a chef for over 40 years working in 5 star hotels 2 & 3 rosette restaurants and three of my restaurants as chef/owner.
I retired a couple of years ago only to discover I missed the craziness and “buzz” of seeing people enjoy my food.
So just under a year ago I joined Yhangry as a private chef, what a decision!! It has been my privilege to host over 30 events (with an average 4.9 star rating) and have another 12 booked over the next couple of months. It has been a pleasure everything from birthdays, engagements, anniversaries hen/stag and family & friends dinner parties and in some amazing private homes.
So at this time of year I would just like to say to all my customers and the team at Yhangry Have a very Merry Christmas 🎉and a fantastic 2025❤️ Chef Paul L

We used Yhangry for my sister’s hen party and they totally exceeded our expectations! We had a delightful Turkish menu that was well suited to our taste and budget!

PROBLEM WITH PROFESSIONALISM AND…
PROBLEM WITH PROFESSIONALISM AND COMUNICATION.
This platform is totally useless and a utter waste of time, I could nt even get one booking from it.
The service on a whole is rubbish.
Communication, disgraceful, the online service were uncontactable, couldn't get through to anyone.
And as for there telephone lines, no one appeared to be available to pick up the phone.
If you sent a message on there chat line, it took 2 to 3 weeks to be heard, With little or no way of issues being resolved properly.
I Previously had a misunderstand with a customer who was interested in my service and booked a face to face visit with me to discuss various menu s and availability.
Now as a brand new Chef I was not actually made aware about any terms & conditions which stated that it was a breach of the Yhangry policy to go visit a customer without verified permission. It was not brought to my attention, I was not told this at all when I signed up.
When I created an account with Yhangry I was wrongly/falsely accused of posting pictures of food from online social media, but those pictures were actually taken from a formal workplace.
I was Falsely and wrong accused of taking customers of the Yhangry platform and getting so call customers to pay me directly away from the platform.
I went through all of this terrible experiences and spent so much time proving my innocence's and clearing me name. When it became clear to Yhangry that they had made these mistakes, they refused to apologize.
Two weeks ago a dubious, sad customer made a false allegation against me and my company, and instead of Yhangry to do a thorough investigation they decided to listen to the customers lies and simply deactivated my account.
A few months back before I joined Yhangry, my next door neighbor went through the same problem when she join, her account was deactivated for no good reason.
I was warned by her not to join, but I didn't listen.
Taking into consideration what happened, I have come to the horrible realization that this is Institutional and indirect racism against the ethic- minority group.
I wouldn't recommend any intelligent decent chef join this deluded Yhangry platform.
Thank you

Had an amazing Mexican meal
Had an amazing Mexican meal, chef cooked and cleaned - such a great evening! Would highly recommend, as Yhangry took care of everything.
Epic Thai food cooked at home in bucks
Epic Thai food cooked to order at ours! Since we moved out of London I thought I’d always have to travel back to east London haunts like som Saa to get some of the good stuff.
Strongly recommend chef Jon!
