Craig, and his son Riley, were outstanding. By far THE best meal I have ever had. Outstanding food, professionalism, and conversation from a team who have ultimately made our time here in Cornwall.

Craig from Duchy Chef produced a delicious three course dinner with beautifully balanced flavours as well as fully spread BBQ. He was charming and highly professional. A big thank you to Duchy chef for making our family weekend!

Can’t recommend Craig enough!! It was the highlight of our holiday. Super delicious, fine dining served up right at home - in our case holiday home. Craig helped us with the menu and the suggestions were spot on. Service was amazing and food even better - all local produce and cooked to perfection. We’ll definitely be booking again when we’re next down in Cornwall.

Where do you start with Craig?
Top bloke, amazing food and great chat.
Our menu was fantastic local flavours, cooked to perfection, generous in portion and equally an educational experience!
Hubby has since used to souvee non stop!
He is one to keep on speed dial if you appreciate beautiful food, local ingredients and a bloke that genuinely enjoys cooking for you.
Can’t wait to come to Cornwall again, cheers Craig! 🎉

Craig cooked a wonderful meal to help us celebrate our daughter’s 18th Birthday. He thought about the menu carefully taking into account our likes and dislikes to come up with a menu that suited us all. In the evening he was lovely to have around and I wouldn’t hesitate to call on his services again.

A lovely catered meal by Craig for a good friends birthday. Delicious food, good portion sizes made with local quality produce. Kitchen was left spotless too. All food dishes were explained and dietary requirements catered for. Highly recommend.

We hired Craig for a 30th birthday and as the party organiser he was a pleasure to deal with. He talked me through the options and agreed the menu. In the run up he kept in touch keeping us informed of any tweaks and to check arrangements for the evening. On the evening Craig produced food beyond our greatest expectations. Each course was packed full of flavour and expertly presented. He talked us through all the courses as they came out and was generally a really nice bloke to have cook for us that evening. I would thoroughly recommend Craig to carer for your private dining experience.

Craig Barrett from Duchy Chef in Cornwall catered for our company Christmas party last Friday. From start to finish the whole process was amazing. Craig was so helpful in putting together menus that worked really well for all of our party.
The whole evening was wonderful, the food was out of this world - from canapes to coffee - and Craig tidied up at the end of the meal - no mess!!
I would highly recommend Craig and Duchy Chef for any private dining, corporate catering, exclusive wedding catering in Cornwall or Devon.
Thanks again Craig!
