Wow! What an evening. David and Rachael worked amazing well ensuring we were all well looked after. The food was on another level of tasty with a full and detailed explanation of each course before it was served. I would recommend this dining experience, especially as I didn’t have a single pot to wash or lifted not one finger. More...

We booked David for a small private outdoor function at our home.David came and made a pre site visit and gave lots of options and menu choice. He produced a stunning menu for 24 guests, who were looked after from the minute they arrived with a glass of Prosecco and throughout the evening with food and wine.I would definitely recommend Hayden's Kitchen More...

Fantastic! David and Emily looked after me and my family so well. Every course was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Two of us eat gluten free and we have both eaten many places and a lot of gluten free food can be a poor substitute for the real thing but Davids food was very tasty. Thank you for Making my mums birthday and their golden wedding anniversary so special. More...

Wow! Wow! Wow!
What a wonderful evening David .. we cannot thank you enough for our wonderful at home “gastronomy” last night. It was delicious, in fact no .... it was sublime !!! The food was beautifully prepared & presented and the service was excellent too. A real treat to be able to spend time with our guests and then at the end of the evening my kitchen was immaculate and we could continue to relax ..... thank you.

If you are considering this experience for you and your family/friends/guests do not hesitate ... get in touch with Hayden’s Kitchen now. This gentleman is busy and I suspect in big demand (and rightly so).

Thank you David and Rachael for a truly memorable evening.

We have used David and his team twice now to cater for special family occasions. Booking on both occasions has been really easy and straight forward. He is really accommodating and offers lots of options with his service to suit the party he is catering for. David & his team serve drinks to us before and throughout our meal allowing us and all of our guests to fully relax and enjoy the evening and amazing food. They also clean everything up so there’s is literally nothing for us to do afterwards. Price is really reasonable for the level of service. Before each course David introduces what is being served and the ingredients. This is a really nice touch. I would highly recommend choosing Hayden’s kitchen to anyone choosing a private chef. The quality of the food is second to none and the overall experience is fantastic. All our friends wouldn’t stop talking about how good the food was (including the fussy eaters). Thankyou David & co for making it really special for us! More...

We had the wonderful pleasure of a private dining experience for 12 in our own home with David and Rachel. What a wonderful treat we had from a unique selection of canopies, a citrus marinated tuna, followed by a delicious mushroom veloute, succulent beef and a melt in the mouth chocolate fondant dessert. I can not recommend David and his team highly enough. Thank you David, Rachel and Lorna for such a fabulous evening! More...

This is the second time we have had Hayden’s Kitchen in our home for a dinner party with our friends. The food is impeccable and tastes absolutely amazing. David is a fantastic chef and Rachel is always very attentive. The kitchen is left immaculate when they leave, luckily sometimes a few leftovers can be found in the fridge at the end of the night which is always a welcome bonus. We can’t recommend Hayden’s Kitchen enough and look forward to our next dinner party so we can once again see David and Rachel and have another great evening. It’s the ultimate dining experience in your own home so don’t hesitate to book! Thank you guys, keep up the brilliant work and see you soon! X More...

David cooked a delicious meal for us to celebrate my hubby’s birthday. Everything was perfect from start to finish (luckily we also had a few tasty leftovers the next day #delish). David was prompt,informative & friendly throughout. It was far easier to organise than I originally imagined, which was an unexpected added bonus. My hubby has a few challenges food wise (dairy & gluten intolerant, as well as being super, super fussy), so I thought David had quite a challenge on his hands. He put together a 5 course dinner suggestion, all of which sounded yummy. We had a couple of minor tweaks, but nothing major as David had managed to juggle all my hubby’s allergies and quirks and successfully produce a wonderful menu. On the evening David arrived fully armed with pots, pans, food, dishes & platters. The only think we needed to provide was our hob, oven & cutlery. The food presentation was beautiful & the taste explosion in our mouths was divine. All our boxes ticked & more. ❤️‘d it all. More...

David has been cooking for us on and off for the last 7 years for various events ranging from hotpot supper on bonfire night right through to a delicious 6 course menu on News Years Eve. He is totally reliable, loyal and best of all great at washing up, in fact he knows his way around my kitchen better than I do. Fantastic service don’t know what I’d do without him. More...

We would highly recommend David Hayden. He catered for a small informal gathering of people (22) at our home for a birthday celebration. He was very helpful in guiding us through our food choices. He is very amenable and can cook anything a client wishes. We plumped for finger food rather than a sit down 3 course dinner. The canapés & bowl food were delicious and plentiful. David arrived promptly with a team of two ladies who helped serve the food and made sure the guests all had their drinks topped up. They were all very professional, well presented and a joy to have in our home. David brought all the food, cutlery and plates for the evening and set everything up prior to the guests arriving. It was great to watch him cooking in a really calm & professional way. The bonus is that all washing up is done before they leave. It certainly takes the stress out of entertaining and we found we really enjoyed our evening just as much as our guests. We would highly recommend David and his team and look forward to welcoming him back to cook for us again in the future. More...
