“Best jollof in East London. Delivered on time, beautifully packed. She nailed the smoky flavour.”

Questions

Good to know

Not at all. Chefnero is a commission platform — you describe exactly what you want, and chefs near you send you a bespoke quote. No fixed menus, no random restaurants.

You only pay once you accept a quote. Your payment is held securely and only released to the chef once your order is delivered or collected.

Most are passionate home cooks, not Michelin chefs — and that's the point. Every chef completes our hygiene verification before going live. Ratings and reviews are public.

Contact your chef through the app — most issues are resolved quickly. Our support team is also available via the Help tab.

Download the app, complete your profile, and submit your kitchen for hygiene verification. Most applications are reviewed within 48 hours.

Currently live across East and North London, with more areas launching soon. Enter your postcode to see chefs near you.
