Chef Staffing in London: Common Questions
How quickly can you supply chefs in London?
For planned bookings, we confirm staff within 2 hours of your request. For emergency chef cover in London, we can deploy vetted kitchen staff within 4 hours to any borough. Our London chef network of 1,000+ professionals means we can scale from a single chef to a full brigade at short notice.
What areas of London do you cover?
We cover all of London, including Central, East, West, North, and South. Our office at Little Britain in the City gives us quick access across the capital. Whether your venue is in Canary Wharf, Kensington, Shoreditch, or Croydon, we can deploy chefs to your kitchen.
Do you supply chefs for corporate catering in London?
Yes, corporate and contract catering is a major part of our London operation. We supply kitchen staff to corporate dining facilities, workplace canteens, and major contract caterers across the City and Greater London. Our chefs understand the specific standards and pace of corporate catering environments.
Are your London chefs PAYE compliant?
All Chefs Bay staff are employed on a full PAYE basis. We don't use umbrella companies or self-employment workarounds. Every worker has completed Right to Work checks, with full compliance documentation available on request. This is especially important for London's corporate and public sector clients.
What makes Chefs Bay different from other London chef agencies?
We're back-of-house specialists. We only supply chefs and kitchen staff, not front-of-house or general hospitality workers. This specialisation means we know the difference between a CDP who can run a section and one who'll need hand-holding. Our 95%+ fulfilment rate is tracked event by event, and we can prove it. When we say 20, we send 20.
