How Much Does a Private Chef Near You in Alphen aan den Rijn Cost?
ChefMaison allows you to discuss directly with chefs around Alphen aan den Rijn and receive personalized quotes based on your unique preferences and budget, so every event is customized to your exact needs. Since every ChefMaison event is unique - there's no fixed pricing. However, we offer indication prices ranging from €59 to €194 per person for weekend bookings for 4 courses, depending on the menu and services selected.
What’s included in our indication prices:
- Groceries and menu ingredients - you don't need to do any shopping or preparation
- Chef preparation time and service during your event (cooking, plating, serving, and cleanup)
To make their event even more memorable, many of our clients choose extra options such as:
- Extra courses, such as cheese platters, luxury amuses, wine pairings, and cocktails
- Premium ingredients like wagyu, oysters, caviar, or Kobe beef
- Children menus or special dietary requests
- Servers for larger groups (usually for 10+ guests)
- Equipment rentals (tables, heaters, fancy tableware, fireworks 🎇 etc.)
Tips for reducing the costs on your private chef experience
- Booking during the week is an excellent way to save money, as many chefs offer weekday discounts for events.
- The price per person decreases as the number of guests increases, making it more affordable for larger groups.
- Book early: Booking your private chef well in advance gives you more time to discuss your preferences and budget, allowing you to secure the best chef at the best price. This also avoids premium prices during high-demand seasons and holidays or weekends.
You have the flexibility to work directly with your chef to create a completely personalized experience, whether you're planning a casual dinner with friends or a lavish celebration. Whatever your vision, ChefMaison ensures your event will be exactly as you imagine it because you have direct contact with your personal chef.

Gonda
Wat een fantastische vrolijke kokkin. Heerlijk gegeten. Voor nu en nog eens🥰
Aron
Miel heeft een heerlijk 5 gangen menu voor ons verzorgd. We hebben heel erg genoten!
Britt
Fantastisch! 10 uit 10. Lekker eten. Heel vriendelijk en alles keurig achtergelaten. Nogmaals top!!
Egbert
We booked a dinner for two with Andrea as our chef and the experience was magnificent. The food was excellent and he was very relaxed talking to us. My girlfriend and I highly recommend Anrea!
Lotte
Het was onze eerste keer met ChefMaison en dankzij chef Andrea was het direct een fantastische ervaring! Hij kwam netjes op tijd en was perfect voorbereid. Hij was erg sociaal en legde ons vol enthousiasme alles uit over de gerechten die hij maakte. Alle gangen waren top! We zouden hem absoluut aanraden!
Menno
Chef Pascal Hennequin was waanzinnig: eten was van hoogstaand nivo en de communicatie en voorbereiding met Pascal verliep uitstekend. Pascal dacht ook goed mee met de menu wensen en de wijnen. Ik kan Pascal iedereen aanraden en zou hem zo weer boeken.
Max
Jan heeft een fantastische 4 gangen menu voor ons gekookt. De communicatie vantevoren via chat en telefoon ging prima en ook enkele "last minute requests" ivm twee extra gasten waren geen probleem. Ook op de avond van het diner heeft Jan steeds meegedacht en voor een goede sfeer gezorgd. Zeker een aanrader voor een bijzondere avond!
Maria
Een absoluut onvergetelijke ervaring, erg goed eten, mooie wijnen, fantastische service. Ik kan niet anders dan op alle punten een excellente score geven. Dit is zeker voor herhaling vatbaar en de "word of mouth" verspreid zich al via de 18 gasten. Zelf al meerdere aanbevelingen gedaan aan vrienden. Merlin en Sebastiaan geweldig gewoon!
Yara
Vooraf had ik geen idee wat we precies konden verwachten maar het overtrof eigenlijk al m'n vetwachtingen. Het eten was heerlijk, prachtig opgemaakt & ook het bijpassende wijnarrangement was lekker. Heel bijzonder om te ervaren hoe er in je eigen keuken zulke lekkere gerechten worden bereid. We kregen vooraf een playlist opgestuurd die ons alvast in de sfeer bracht en na afloop was de hele keuken weer opgeruimd alsof er niks gebeurd was. Een toprestaurant-ervaring in je eigen huis, echt een aanrader!
Cliff
Chef steffie zhong heeft een mooi diner gemaakt en alles netjes geregeld.
Jeroen
Chef Ray Katty heeft mijn 50e verjaardag dinner prima verzorgd.
Florian
We enjoyed a lovely Birthday dinner at the coziness of our home with Chef Heri: fine Asian Fusion Cuisine aligned with nicely matching wines. Everything was organized in advance, and the food was delicious. The best part is that the kitchen was perfectly clean afterwards.
Darryll
Bram heeft het 21 diner verzorgd van onze zoon. Onze zoon had aangegeven wat hij ongeveer wilde eten en Bram heeft er een geweldig diner van gemaakt. Een vriend zei:ik heb nog nooit zo lekker gegeten! Het dessert was origineel en heel erg lekker! Bram kookte, serveerde en ruimde alles weer op. Voor een heerlijk diner in intieme sfeer waar je zelf geen omkijken naar hebt, ben je bij Bram aan het goede adres: een aanrader!
Marion
We hebben een heerlijk diner gehad van Wouter. Verrassend en zeer smaakvol. Goede service en prima communicatie. Zeer goed aanvoelend wat we nodig hadden. Het telefonisch contact wat we via de website van ChefMaison hadden was niet goed. Haperend en steeds wegvallend. Gelukkig na de betaling, via onze eigen nummers goed contact gehad met Wouter.
Max
Te gekke avond gehad met Vincent. Op korte termijn had ik een chef-kok nodig. Het feit dat we niet bij elkaar om de hoek wonen, vormden geen bezwaar. Het menu in een handomdraai geregeld. De kwaliteit, zijn service en gezelligheid absoluut 5 sterren waard. Al met al een aanrader!
Beverly
Chef Sherwin was an absolute start! On Valentines Day, he prepared the most delicious, exciting and interesting menu for a group of my guests. The experience was so wonderful with every person genuinely enjoying every course. We appreciated him cooking for us an plan to reach out again for another dining experience. 10 stars all round, Sherwin is awesome!
