Two chefs cancelled last minute
We had two chefs cancel last minute for a hen do we're planning. Really not impressed.

Hello Tanzie,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m so sorry to hear about the experience you had with us. I completely understand how frustrating it must have been to have not one, but two chefs cancel on you, especially when you were planning something as special as a hen-do 😔
We deeply regret the disruptions you faced and assure you that these events are not reflective of the standards we strive to maintain at yhangry. When Chef Helio had to leave unexpectedly and then Chef Lee had an emergency, it was an unfortunate series of events that disrupted your plans.
Thank you for giving us a chance to make it right by rebooking with another chef. Your patience and understanding during that time meant a lot. We’re taking steps to ensure this doesn’t happen again because your trust in us is so important.
If there’s anything more we can do for you, please reach out to me directly. We truly appreciate your feedback and would love the chance to serve you better in the future.
Best,
Akifa.
yhangry is brilliant!
yhangry is a fantastic gateway to unforgettable memories and high-quality cuisine at an excellent price. You can contact a variety of chefs in your geographical area, who reply with a quote and a menu. Chef Adam W cooked exceptional quality food, was relaxed, happy to chat, and made the whole event fantastic. Communication before the evening was excellent, using yhangry's text and phone call tools. I highly recommend yhangry and Chef Adam W, and we're very much looking forward to doing this again!

We're honoured by your recommendation and can't wait to assist with your next event. Chef Adam W will be delighted to hear your kind words!

I was a little apprehensive using the site as a first timer for an important celebration but it went perfectly! The chef (Nadine) was so lovely and easy to communicate with and her cooking was outstanding. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again and maybe even to try others.

Great dining experience at home
Used the service in our flat to invite some friends over and we loved every bit. Right from starters to the main course and dessert. Chef Janucz came on time with all his ingredients and the experience was nothing short of impressive. Will continue to use the service in the future

Most enjoyable and relaxing experience
I had the most enjoyable and relaxing experience with yhangry and chef Ryan. It was the best decision to use the company for my birthday. The communication with the chef was very easy and prompt, the menu he suggested and the dishes he cooked were superb. My guests and I weee very impressed by the service. Will definitely recommend to others and use yhangry again myself.

Fantastic Chef Highly Recommend
Chef Adam was a pleasure to work with from start to finish! We spoke about the menu for weeks before my birthday, Adam was very helpful ensuring it was perfect and I had everything I wanted, nothing was too much for him. Adam arrived promptly and prepared, was polite and friendly! The food on the night was wonderful, we had a sit down meal for 30-40 people, served outside and quite a walk from the kitchen which is not an easy task but everyone said they loved the food! I was delighted that I booked Chef Adam and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a chef he is extremely talented and a joy to have.

We haven't held the event yet so Im just commenting on the 'accept invitation' link. My partner has invited everyone but when i try and accept through my personal email it just says that I can't reply to my own invite. Not a big deal really. I'm just making you aware of the issue.

Hello Diane 👋
Thanks for letting us know!
The reason you're seeing that message is because your email is associated with the account for the booking. The invite link is just for guests, not the host. We’ll make sure to clarify that better going forward 🤗

Hello!
We noticed your review and wanted to clear up a few things.
First, we have no record of you being a customer of yhangry. Instead, our records indicate that you applied for a position with us and are based in India.
Posting a negative review due to dissatisfaction with the outcome of your job application is not ideal nor fair. We encourage feedback from actual customers to help us improve our services.
Best,
Team yhangry.

Fabulous set up and such good fun in working through the selection process!! Just now can't wait to taste the food from Chef Fabrice, who I have selected for my 2 day event :-)

Terrible company - Chef cancels at last minute
Terrible company. Our chef cancelled the day before our event. Of course we reached out to yhangry to help, the customer service was terrible. They tried to charge us an additional £200 to replace the chef! Overall shocking experience and we have had to find a reliable chef locally. Will never use this site again and this should serve as a warning - your chef will not turn up if you book with Yhangry!

Hello Solomon,
We’re truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with us. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to have your chef cancel the day before your event.
We want to clarify that when we found a replacement chef last minute, their rate was significantly higher, almost double the original price. We absorbed 75% of this extra cost ourselves and asked you to cover the remaining 25%. This decision was made to ensure your event could still go ahead, albeit at a higher cost, which I understand was far from ideal.
We apologize if this was not communicated clearly or if it felt like our customer service fell short during such a stressful time. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’re taking it to heart to improve our processes and communication.
We strive to provide a seamless and enjoyable experience for all our customers, and we regret that we didn’t achieve that with your booking.
If there’s anything more we can do to address your concerns, please do reach out.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
Disappointing, do not use!
I booked an event on the 5th of August. It went great, however after everyone has left i noticed the damage done to my new hob, a corner has chipped off. I contacted yhangry and was put in touch with the insurance company. This is the worst experience of my life - it takes a week for their email system to load, which means they only respond once a week if you're lucky. It is the end of Nov and unfortunately i am still waiting to be re-reimbursed. First yhangry provided wrong bank details to the insurance company, so the payment bounced. Quite clearly Must be very difficult to copy-paste something sent via an email ... in the meantime yhangry was completely ignoring my emails asking for help with the insurance. It now turns out the policyholder, i.e. chef, has to pay the premium directly to me. Bank details have been shared with him, yet I have received no payment. Insurance wiped their hands and said it has nothing to do with them and i have to contact him directly. Yhangry ignores me. so all in all I have a broken hob and no reimbursement and i have to chase someone whose details i dont have.

Hello Tatiana,
Thank you for sharing your feedback — we completely understand how stressful and disappointing this situation was, especially after what should have been a wonderful event. We want to sincerely apologize for the experience you had.
The insurance process can indeed be complex, especially when third-party companies are involved, but this should not have left you feeling ignored or unsupported. Your experience has highlighted areas where we need to improve, particularly in our communication and the speed of resolving such issues.
We have taken your feedback to heart and are working on better systems to ensure that future claims are handled more efficiently and with greater care.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are committed to improving our processes to prevent such issues in the future.
Great experience from start to finish
Great experience from start to finish! From finding and selecting a private chef, initial communications with the chef to design our bespoke menu to the end of our event when all our guests were left impressed and full and the kitchen was left spotless - there was no stress! Would definitely use yhangry again!
