Private Chef Hire in Weymouth
Award-winning private chef serving Weymouth and Portland, the Jurassic Coast, and the wider Weymouth Bay area
Private Dining on the Jurassic Coast
Weymouth is Dorset’s gateway to the Jurassic Coast, and the perfect setting for a private chef experience. With a perfect 5.0 Google rating from over 350 reviews, we bring restaurant-quality private dining to your holiday cottage, home, or celebration venue.
The town’s stunning harbour, golden beaches, and proximity to some of England’s most dramatic coastline make it one of Dorset’s most popular destinations — and one of our favourite places to cook. Whether you’re on a family holiday, celebrating a milestone, or hosting friends for a weekend by the sea, we create bespoke menus designed around you and the occasion.

We cook across Weymouth and the surrounding area, wherever you’re staying:
- Weymouth Harbour & Old Town — Harbourside properties and townhouse dinner parties with views across the water

- Chickerell & Littlemoor — Family celebrations and private dining in the villages around Weymouth

Holiday Cottage Dining
Weymouth and the Jurassic Coast attract thousands of visitors every year. Groups and families book a cottage by the sea — and one evening, they want something unforgettable. We arrive, we cook, we serve, and we leave the kitchen spotless. It transforms a holiday into a lasting memory.
We’ve cooked in harbourside flats, beachfront cottages, converted barns, and grand coastal houses. As long as there’s a working kitchen, we can create something extraordinary. Private dining starts from £70 per person.
Weymouth’s Seafood Heritage
Being a working harbour town, Weymouth has some of the freshest seafood in Dorset. We source directly from the harbour where possible — day-boat catches of bass, bream, mackerel, and crab are often on the menu within hours of landing. Combined with our trusted Dorset suppliers — organic vegetables from Ringwood, meat from Fordingbridge, dairy from the Blackmore Vale — the result is a menu genuinely rooted in this landscape.
Weddings & Celebrations
The Weymouth and Portland area offers some stunning wedding venues — from the dramatic backdrop of Portland’s clifftops to the elegant gardens at Abbotsbury. We work closely with couples and event planners to create menus that fit the setting and the occasion perfectly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you cook in my holiday cottage in Weymouth?
Absolutely — holiday cottage dining is one of our most popular bookings along the Jurassic Coast. As long as there’s a working kitchen, we bring everything we need: ingredients, equipment, crockery, table settings, and personalised printed menus.
How far ahead should I book for a Weymouth stay?
We recommend booking 2–4 weeks ahead, especially for summer dates when the coast is at its busiest. If you’ve already booked your cottage, get in touch as soon as you have dates confirmed.
Do you cover Portland as well as Weymouth?
Yes — we cook across Weymouth, Portland, Abbotsbury, Chickerell, and the surrounding Jurassic Coast villages regularly.

Seasonal Dining in Weymouth
Weymouth in summer is quintessential Dorset — the harbour fills with visitors, the Jurassic Coast beckons, and the seafood is as fresh as it gets. We create menus that celebrate the coast: day-boat fish from the harbour, Dorset crab, lobster, and the best of the summer harvest. Long evenings, harbour views, and food that makes the holiday.
Based in Bournemouth, Weymouth is around 40 minutes along the A35. We cook here regularly, especially during the summer season.
