Every booking is customized to your household’s needs. Whether you follow gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, vegan, keto, paleo, or have food allergies or other dietary preferences, your chef will create a menu that’s tailored specifically for you.
Great food should fit your lifestyle—not the other way around.
Each cook has their own hourly rate. So pricing varies based on your selected chef, menu item, market price for groceries, and number of servings.
You’ll see transparent pricing before confirming your reservation, with no hidden fees. Whether you’re booking a one-time dinner or recurring weekly service, ChefMate offers a premium experience designed to save you time while bringing restaurant-quality meals into your home.
We understand that plans change.
You can manage your booking directly in the app. Rescheduling and cancellation options depend on how close you are to your scheduled service, and any applicable policies will always be clearly shown before you make changes. Do note the pre-booking 48-hour cancellation window, thereafter you may be subject to a fee of 10% of your booking total, and grocery reimbursement. Find out more on our Terms of Service page.
Our goal is to make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible.

We understand that unexpected situations happen.
If you need to cancel a booking, you can do so directly through the app. Because cancellations impact the customer experience, we encourage cooks to only accept bookings they can confidently fulfill. Repeated last-minute cancellations may affect your brand’s standing with potential clients.
Do note the customer’s 48-hour cancellation window after which you will be compensated for 10% of the booking total but also the groceries should you have already purchased them. Should you need to cancel after the 48-hour mark, ……. Find out more on our Terms of Service page.
