This year, we wished for an extraordinary food experience compared to what we have had in previous years for our Christmas lunch - which is exactly what ChefMe delivered. We got a 3-course Christmas inspired menu and it tasted really delicious. Great ingredients, beautiful presentation, and no cleanup.

Book a private chef for the Christmas lunch

Make this year's Christmas lunch something truly special with a private chef from ChefMe. Whether you have 10 or 60 guests, our chefs will ensure an authentic Danish Christmas lunch with everything from classic herring and hot dishes to rice pudding — prepared and served in your own surroundings.

Skip the planning, shopping, and dishwashing. With a Christmas lunch off-site experience from ChefMe, you get a professional chef who brings all the ingredients and takes care of the cleanup afterwards.

Why choose a private chef for the Christmas lunch?

A traditional Christmas lunch requires many hours of preparation — but with a private chef, you can focus on what matters most: enjoying time with family, friends, or colleagues. The chef plans the menu, shops for ingredients, and prepares everything from scratch. You get an authentic Christmas lunch with professional service, without anyone needing to stand in the kitchen all day. Perfect for both private Christmas lunches and corporate Christmas lunches.

What does a Christmas lunch with a private chef cost?

A Christmas lunch with a private chef typically starts from 349-599 DKK per person depending on the extent of the menu. The price includes all ingredients, preparation, service, and cleanup. Most chefs offer packages ranging from a simple 3-course Christmas lunch to a complete Christmas lunch buffet with the entire selection. See specific prices and menus directly on the chefs' profiles.

Popular Christmas lunch menus

Our chefs offer Christmas lunches in all sizes and styles:

  • Classic Danish Christmas lunch — Marinated herring, warm liver pâté, roast pork with red cabbage, rice pudding, and snaps
  • Modern Christmas lunch — Nordic twist on classic dishes with local ingredients and creative sides
  • Christmas lunch buffet — Large selection of cold and hot dishes, perfect for larger parties
  • Christmas lunch off-site — The chef comes to your home with everything included, from start to finish
Private chef for any Christmas event

In addition to Christmas lunches, our chefs can also assist with other events. See our other pages for inspiration: birthday, corporate party, confirmation, barbecue, wedding or hire a chef for any occasion.

5/5 Stars!
We had the distinct pleasure of experiencing a private dining event with Davide and Aaron, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From the moment we discussed the menu to the final bite of dessert, Davide and Aaron delivered an exceptional culinary experience that surpassed all expectations. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the meal. The menu was thoughtfully crafted. Each dish was perfectly executed. What sets Davide and Aaron apart is not just their skill in the kit

Everything exceeded our expectations
Incredible delicious food - really good and easy communication in the process. Throughout the entire course, it was a safe experience and all guests were, like us, very excited. We got a pescetarian menu. Throughout the entire course, the dialogue was with Patrick and on the evening it was Frederik who took over. Fantastic service from him as well. The best recommendations from here.

Hope to be able to book them again next year and the highest recommendations from me and my guests.

I would like to share my experience with Charlotte who made the Christmas lunch menu for our men's Christmas lunch. She arrived about an hour before mealtime, cooked, arranged, and served. All dishes were of high quality and prepared with care. Charlotte was very nice and accommodating, and managed to make it a super cool experience. After the last serving, she cleaned up after herself, so it was not noticeable that she had been there. All in all, I would warmly recommend Charlotte for Privat

Bo made Christmas dinner for a small international group of colleagues. The menu was traditional, as ordered, and all elements came with a twist of a particularly good ingredient or a special thorough preparation method, just as I had hoped. Bo was good and quick at communicating regarding the agreement. During dinner, he was an efficient chef in the kitchen and a pleasant person to have in the home.

The experience comes to you
Whether you are at home, in a summer house or have rented a large venue, the chef comes to you and creates a unique dining experience for everyone.
Everything included, from ingredients to cleanup
When you book through ChefMe, you agree on the menu and price directly with the chef. Ingredients, cooking and cleanup are included, with no unexpected extra costs.
Secure and transparent payment
We only charge you after you have accepted the chef's offer, and no earlier than 14 days before your event.

You can change the number of guests and allergens free of charge up to 7 days before the event. Cancel 7 days or more before and we refund the full amount.

Frequently asked questions

Have other questions? You can ask the chef directly by sending a message. For general questions, you can always contact our customer service.
What is included when I book a ChefMe chef?

The chef takes care of shopping, cooking, serving and cleaning up the kitchen. You just need to set the table and provide drinks (unless you have added a wine menu or similar), and otherwise enjoy the time with your guests.

When is the latest I should book, and can I make changes after booking?

We recommend reserving the date as early as possible by sending a request to the chef, especially for weekends and around holidays or large events, when demand is high.

Up to 7 days before the event you can adjust the number of guests, and you are always covered by our free cancellation insurance. So you can safely book as soon as you know the date of your event.

Running late and need a chef at short notice? Contact our customer service on 93 40 40 10 or write to kontakt@chefme.dk and we will do what we can to help.

What kinds of events can I book a chef for?

You can book a ChefMe chef for all kinds of events, big or small. From milestone birthdays and weddings to small, intimate dinners with friends, family or colleagues.

Our skilled chefs tailor the menu and the experience to fit your needs perfectly.

Can I change the chef's menu?

Yes, you can start from one of the chef's menu suggestions, and with most chefs have a menu tailored exactly to your wishes.

Simply write your preferences when you send a request, so together you can put together a menu that suits you and your party perfectly.

When do I pay?

We only charge the payment 14 days before the event. If the event is less than 14 days away, we charge the payment immediately on booking confirmation.

Can children's menus be made?

Yes, children are more than welcome. The ChefMe chef can often adapt the menu into child-friendly versions or make special dishes that appeal to the little ones.

Just mention how many children are attending when you send your request, and the chef will make sure both children and adults have a great experience.

Is there a minimum or maximum number of guests?

Each chef decides how many people their menus are suited for.

Most ChefMe chefs cook for parties of 8 to 100 people, but you can also find menus for 5 people, or for more than 200 guests.

What if I have to cancel?

If you need to cancel a confirmed booking, you can. ChefMe has a flexible cancellation policy:

  • 7 days or more before the event: you get the full amount refunded.
  • 3 to 6 days before the event: you get 70% of the amount refunded.
  • Less than 3 days before the event: the order can no longer be cancelled.

If the chef has to cancel (which fortunately is rare), you naturally get the full amount refunded, and we help you find a new chef.

What if I have more questions?

You are always welcome to ask our customer service, we are here to help!

Remember too that as soon as you send a request to a chef, you can ask the chef questions through our messaging system.

If any questions come up, you can always call our customer service on 93 40 40 10 or write to kontakt@chefme.dk
