Very good presentation, very good food, flexible with the menu all cleaned up when completed. Very professional experience.

Lee was fantastic from start to finish, his communication before the evening, all of our food, his attention to detail and he had a great personality too, was lovely to have him in our home for my mums 70th birthday it was a fantastic experience from start to finish food was amazing! Would highly recommend Lee

We had a wonderful meal prepared by Chef Lee. We requested a gluten free meal for all of us as our daughter is Coeliac. The food was delicious and carefully prepared to avoid any gluten. The Gf Honey and Orange Cheesecake was amazing!! Chef Lee was very friendly and engaging. He was also very efficient, brought everything he needed and cleaned up well after the meal. We would highly recommend this experience.

Lee er veldig hyggelig og han ordner alt med både servering og opprydding. Vi skulle ønske det var mulig med flere enn tre retter for å få en smak av Skottland. Maten som ble servert smakte godt.

Worked with us to produce a perfect menu

This was truly a once in a lifetime experience! Chef Lee not only provided a fantastic meal, he was friendly and made us feel comfortable and welcoming. He sharing insight to his cooking style and produce he selected. It was a great alternative to a restaurant - especially when we had such an amazing location. The communication leading up to the dinner was great as well.

Absolutely perfect , chef Lee is amazing !

We celebrated my mom's birthday early with the private dinner and Chef Lee made it a very special occasion. Each course was freshly prepared, delicious, and beautifully plated. An outstanding evening!

Great chef, used Lee's services a few times now and always been great

We booked a private chef experience for our wedding day. We travelled to Inverness to elope and wanted to have a really lovely and intimate dining experience. When Chef Lee arrived he got straight to work and the food (4 course menu) was honestly one of the best meals my husband and I had ever had. We were able to choose our menus which ensured full enjoyment. We definitely would recommend Chef Lee to anyone looking for a private chef.

Service and food was amazing, we have used this service before and will use again.

Lee was really responsive beforehand - he provided an incredible menu for us to choose from and answered any questions right away. He was very punctual and efficient with our evening meal and the food was delicious.

Lee and his team did a fabulous job and turned a huge family dinner into a great joy. Thank you!!

Unbelievable dinner. Chef Lee was fantastic. The food was amazing. The whole experience was truly unforgettable. Our party of 8 are all raving about it days later. Thank you so much for a great anniversary celebration!

Lee was very communicative and delivered a wonderful highland larder culinary experience. He was punctual, incredibly polite and left the kitchen sparkling clean!

We had exceptional quality and service, Lee was professional and attentive to our requirements. The food was prepared and served to a very high standard and we all had a great evening.

Excellent service by Chef Lee. A great experience from start to finish. Thank you

Chef Lee was booked for our company's Christmas dinner. We were staying in a large house on the outskirts of Inverness and hadn't used a private chef before but wanted to do something special for our team. Chef Lee was excellent, from designing a menu that suited dietary needs to taking into consideration specific preferences. He arrived on time and prepared, served, and cleared lovely dishes of food. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their evening and we would be delighted to use him again and would encourage anyone else seeing a private chef to do so.

Chef Lee Beale was fantastic and his food was the best we had during our 9 day stay in Inverness. (Tied only with the dinner we had at The Mustard Seed.) But I have to say that the experience of having someone come to our home was wonderful. Chef Lee contacted me several times to ensure that the meal was exactly to my specifications. There were 10 of us at a rental in Inverness and this was our last meal before our retreat ended. This dinner was an incredible send off! We just relaxed and enjoyed one exceptional course after another. All ingredients were fresh and locally sourced - and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend Chef Lee Beale and will be using his services for our next retreat!
