The price of renting a chef in Mallorca depends mainly on your group size, the menu and the time of year. Smaller groups pay a higher rate per person than larger gatherings.
Booking prices range from 79 EUR to 150 EUR. For groups of 13 people or more, the price is 79 EUR per person. For groups of 7 to 12 people, the cost is 113 EUR per person. For groups of 3 to 6 people, the rate is 180 EUR per person, and for 2 people, the price is 150 EUR per person.
Across more than a thousand services already cooked in Mallorca, half of our guests paid between roughly 66 and 98 euros per person, and a typical booking for seven people came to around 570 euros in total. High season, premium ingredients such as lobster or red prawn, and last-minute dates push that figure up. Fill out our form to get free quotes with no obligation and compare real proposals for your dates.
Booking is easy! Just tell us the date of your event, number of guests, dietary preferences and any allergies, and a few details about your kitchen. Within a few hours, you'll receive customized menus from qualified chefs. Each chef's profile will include their experience, reviews, and photos of their dishes.
Feel free to chat directly with the chefs through our platform. Ask them to modify menus, discuss pricing, or get answers to any questions you might have. Once you've found the perfect chef and menu, finalize your reservation online. We'll then provide the chef's contact information to confirm any final details.
Yes — it is the most common setup on the island. Around one in six guests booking in Mallorca mentions a villa, finca or holiday rental, and there are currently 713 chefs available here who work in exactly those kitchens.
Tell us in your request what the kitchen has — oven, hob, grill, how many burners — and whether there is an outdoor area. Chefs arrive with the preparation already done, bring their own knives and specialist equipment, cook and serve on site, and clean the kitchen before they leave. If the property is managed, it is worth confirming with the owner that an external chef is allowed, although that is rarely an issue in Mallorca.
There is no hard limit. In Mallorca the typical booking is seven guests, about half are groups of seven to twelve, and roughly one in five is ten or more — villa tables here are simply bigger than city dining rooms. We have served groups of up to 25.
Above about a dozen guests the chef will usually bring an assistant or a second chef, and the menu shifts towards formats that travel well to a big table, such as paella, shared tapas or a whole roasted fish. Tell us the headcount in your request and the proposals you receive will already account for it.
Yes, the chef always prepares the menu at your home for a more personalized experience. However, some prep work might be done beforehand for complex dishes.
Absolutely! Many guests are passionate about food and relish the chance to learn from the chef. You can pick up new kitchen skills and get a behind-the-scenes look at each dish on the menu. Feel free to jump in and cook alongside the chef for a truly interactive experience!
Yes, they're 100% fresh. Unlike restaurants with pre-made dishes, private chefs prioritize using the freshest ingredients possible. This is because the chef creates a customized menu specifically for you, then goes out and sources the finest ingredients to bring your chosen dishes to life.
Drinks are not typically included, but you can discuss adding them to the menu proposal with the chef.
Tipping for private chefs is entirely at your discretion. Our goal is for you to have an unforgettable experience, and the chef always appreciates a nice tip. However, the decision and amount are completely up to you.

How many chef services are booked in Mallorca each month?
Private chef bookings in Mallorca follow the island’s season almost exactly: eight out of ten services happen between May and September, and August and September are the two busiest months by a clear margin. January and February are close to empty. Unlike a city, where demand spikes around dates such as Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day, here it is the holiday calendar that sets the pace.
That concentration matters when you book. The best chefs in Mallorca fill their August and September weekends first, and reservations for those months are made further ahead than at any other time of year. If your dates fall in high season, send your request early; if you are travelling in spring or autumn, you will find more availability and more room to shape the menu.
Cost of a private chef in Mallorca
The cost of hiring a private chef in Mallorca can vary based on several factors, including the number of people in your group or seasonality. Larger groups tend to have a different average rate per person compared to smaller groups that hire a chef:
Booking prices range from 79 EUR to 150 EUR per person.
For 13 people or more: 79 EUR
For 7 to 12 people: 113 EUR
For 3 to 6 people: 180 EUR
For 2 people: 150 EUR.
Additionally, prices can fluctuate depending on the time of year, location, and how soon you book your personal chef. If you want to get free quotes, just fill out our form and receive tailored proposals for your event. No committment at all.

What is the most reserved type of cuisine in Mallorca?
We offer Mediterranean, Italian, French, Japanese, Mexican and surprise menus in Mallorca, but the island’s own cooking is what guests ask for most: the most booked type of cuisine here is Chef's special. Local and Mediterranean menus together make up around half of all bookings with a stated preference, and our surprise menu covers anything outside that.
Beyond these six types of cuisine, our private chefs personalize diverse menus for their clients every day, adjusting every detail to find the perfect menu for every occasion and every group. Our private chefs can accommodate any allergy or dietary restriction and suggest other cuisines or fusion dishes. Submit your request and hire a chef in Mallorca!
A private chef in your Mallorca villa or finca
Most private chef dinners in Mallorca don’t happen in a restaurant — they happen at a rented villa, a finca in the Tramuntana or a holiday home near the coast. Around one in six guests tells us up front that the kitchen is a rental, and our chefs are used to it: they arrive with the preparation already done, work with the equipment that is there, serve the table and leave the kitchen as they found it.
Group size is the other thing that sets Mallorca apart. The typical booking here is seven guests, and close to half are groups of seven to twelve — the size a restaurant handles badly and a villa table handles beautifully. Dinner is the meal in more than nine out of ten bookings, and eight in ten happen between May and September.
The celebrations our Mallorca chefs cook for
Of the bookings where guests tell us the occasion, a third are simply friends getting together, a quarter are birthdays, one in six is a family reunion and one in seven is a hen or stag weekend. Romantic dinners for two happen too, but Mallorca is overwhelmingly a table-for-many destination.
The process is the same whatever the occasion: describe your event, and the first menus usually arrive within about six and a half hours. Most guests compare four or more proposals, chat with the chefs to adjust dishes, and book around two days after sending the request. In August and September — the two busiest months on the island — that window gets tighter, so it is worth asking earlier.
Talk to our chefs in Mallorca
Each of our chefs is one-of-a-kind, with professional culinary training and years of experience in diverse restaurants. In Mallorca most guests ask for the island’s own cooking — arròs brut, tumbet, fresh fish from the market — but Mediterranean, Italian, Japanese and fusion menus are all on the table. Tell us about your event in Mallorca, and discover the best chefs who will customize every detail of your experience.
