Christopher was fantastic from start to finish. Table was presented wonderfully with printed menus and decorated for a 70th birthday. The food was exactly what we wanted. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again. Thanks

Absolutely amazing service! Perfect meal for my family of 11

The best experience - was amazing start to finish and the food was superb!

I worked with Chris Galt during Masters week of 2025. Chris was a consummate professional who executed his work at the highest level, providing food service of exceptional quality at all times. This was accompanied with his delightful personality and cheerful disposition - all of which made for a great culinary experience!

"I booked Crafted Gastronomy for my 30th birthday and I couldn't recommend Chris highly enough. The private dining grazing board was perfect - not only did it look incredible, but everything was fresh, delicious and presented with so much care and attention to detail. From start to finish, the service was fantastic. Communication was excellent throughout, and Chris was incredibly attentive, making sure everything was perfect on the day. It really elevated the whole experience and took the stress out of hosting. So many of my guests commented on how amazing the food was, and it became a real talking point of the evening. I wouldn't hesitate to book again for future events and celebrations. Thank you for helping make my 30th so special!"

We booked Chris with very short notice for 16 of us on a stag do. everything he produced was spot on. Great night of food and drink

We hired a property in the lake district for Christmas and a Birthday. Chris turned up nice and early and set the table up beautifully. he brought a server which was recommended as there was 12 of us. the food was amazing and the night was so smooth and effortless. Would book him again for the next event.

Chris was amazing from first contact to delivery. He took our requests and created a menu that was beyond belief. Chris and his experienced team delivered a perfectly tailored culinary delight that made my wife's 50th celebrations particularly special for her and our 8 guests. Can’t recommend highly enough.

We booked Chris for a full bar set up and canapes for our New Year Eve party. Nothing was too much trouble he brought three staff and bar staff for our evening. The cocktail were amazing everyone had an amazing night. He also arranged full collection of all the rental equipment so i had nothing to deal with other than the hang over.

This was the first time that we had employed a private chef and we weren't entirely sure what to expect. We wanted to do something different whilst taking a break in the Yorkshire Dales and whatever our expectations might have been Chris certainly surpassed them. From bringing all his own table settings, menus, the obvious time spent on preparation and cleaning away as he went along, Above all, the food was delicious, presented beautifully and throughout the meal Chris was chatty and engaging.

Chris was fantastic! He arrived on time, was friendly, and took the time to chat with us about the dishes, wine pairings, and his background. Every course was packed with flavour and beautifully presented. The food was exceptional, and he left the kitchen spotless — you’d never know he’d been cooking there! We’d absolutely recommend Chris and look forward to booking him again.

We hired Chris as a private chef for my dad’s 60th birthday. He put together a Lancashire-themed menu that was well-executed, nicely presented, and very tasty. He laid the table, brought printed menus, and left the kitchen spotless. Professional and efficient throughout — we were very pleased with the service.

From start to finish it was a great experience. Chris was communicative and accommodating to requests as well as providing lots of menu inspiration to satisfy the tastes of the group. On the day itself, Chris and Paul were fantastic. The kitchen they were given to prep was definitely on the tiny side but despite that, the food was amazing and service equally as good. Dishes were presented beautifully and they left the kitchen immaculate after leaving, I would recommend Chris and team for any private dining experience in future and hope I get the opportunity to book again sometime

This was the first time I’ve booked a private chef to celebrate a big birthday and I’ll definitely book chris again. The food, personal service, attention to detail and cleanliness was 5 star quality and all my guests loved every course. I couldn’t recommend Chris more highly for any event small or big. Will be booking him again"

"I booked Chris for a birthday celebration meal with a group of friends. I wanted to be able to discuss options and tweaks to the menu, deal with someone friendly, responsive and professional, and ultimately have a fantastic dining experience that we would all enjoy. I got all of that. We had a gorgeous three course meal on a beautifully dressed table, efficient and attentive service and easy conversation. Would use again for future events"
