FERNANDO
Barcelona, Jun 2026
Marc has always fulfilled on time, came very quickly to the places, and responded with seriousness on delivery and price. He did maintenance on some properties for me, an integral reform, and also installations of electricity and water, and when I need someone I keep him in my agenda. He is not the cheapest, but he is serious, keeps his price and at the end of the work there are no surprises - the job ends as he said it was going to be. Communication with Marc is very good, he responds right away.

Yesi was incredibly helpful and very personable. She translated my FBI background check from English to Spanish, knew what needed to be translated and when, and even helped me with legal knowledge, very efficient and quick. I used her two years ago and I’m using her again this year because I know she is the best. Price could be cheaper - these things cost a lot of money in general - but it is what it is.

I needed support with my fitness brand and she designed the logo and the marketing materials like flyers. I told her what I wanted and she got it right away, we only did a few small adjustments that she handled no problem, and she was super fast and stuck to the timeline, very on point. We met in person and even did a photo shoot on the beach for my trainings since she’s also a photographer, and communication was easy. The price felt like a great investment and not over the top, especially since she didn’t ask for extra for the little adjustments, so I’m super satisfied and she’s the first person I’d go to again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I hire an English-speaking private chef in Barcelona?
Yes. Private chefs and caterers are popular in Barcelona for dinners, parties and events, and many work with international clients in English. We list ones reviewed by people who've actually hosted them.
How do I organise an event without local contacts?
That's exactly the gap a directory fills. Settle your date, budget and guest numbers, then browse caterers, chefs and planners and read their reviews. The pros handle the local logistics for you.
Can a chef cater for dietary needs?
Yes, most private chefs build the menu around you, including vegetarian, vegan and allergy needs. Just mention it when you enquire so they can plan.
What's involved in booking a private chef?
Usually you agree a menu, the chef shops, cooks in your kitchen and cleans up, so you get to enjoy the evening. It's a lovely option for a special occasion or a relaxed dinner at home.
How do I find a caterer for a bigger event?
Look for caterers whose reviews mention events your size, and book early for weekends. Filtering to English-speaking providers makes the planning much easier.
