Private Chef in Barcelona
As amazing as Barcelona’s gastronomic scene is, sometimes you may just want to revel in the luxury of your Barcelona apartment at mealtime.
Sure, you can order from Glovo or any other number of food delivery services in the city, but for the ultimate luxury experience why not hire a private chef in Barcelona or a speciality catering team with Iberian Escapes Concierge Services?
A Rich Gastronomic Scene
Barcelona has an incredible range of culinary options. From local Catalan cuisine abundant in fish, locally grown vegetables and rich, nut and tomato-based sauces, to dishes from across Asia, Latin America and (increasingly) Africa.
Discovering this is a huge attraction for visitors to the Catalan capital – and for those who choose to stay in a Barcelona villa or apartment, having a special meal in your home-away-from-home may prove to be a highlight of your Barcelona holiday.

For The Love Of Cooking
The private chefs you can book through Iberian Escapes have started their business through sheer love of cooking – so hiring one gives a highly personal and intimate experience that caters to all tastes.
Although Barcelona is probably the best city in Spain for vegans and vegetarians, those with food allergies or other requirements such as kosha and hallal can be challenged with a lack of choices in most restaurants.
The personal chefs in Barcelona we partner with can create a special weekly menu for you with these requirements in mind.
Firstly, they send a survey to find out about tastes and allergies and give you meal options for a week’s worth of lunches (or dinners). They then prepare, cook and of course clean up in your Barcelona tourist flat (a process that takes around 2.5-3 hours) or if you prefer you can pick the prepared meals up from their own kitchen.
This model of batch cooking can alleviate headaches for young families, who want to have some time off from cooking on their Barcelona holiday, but don’t want to take the kids to a restaurant every mealtime.
For those who want a romantic dinner in their Barcelona apartment and love Italian and Asian food, another one of our private Barcelona chefs is Italian-born and also worked as a personal chef in Hong Kong and Vietnam – so her culinary expertise spans oceans and cultures.
Although Spaniards generally (and surprisingly) shy away from spicy foods, Barceloneans appreciate the piquant flavours of Asian cuisines – and the fact that they are served in a ‘small plate’ sharing format resonates with tapas culture, leading to some very creative culinary fusions in Barcelona.
Whether it’s celebratory Asian fare or Italian delicacies that include antipasti platters and Northern Italian truffle-infused dishes, this private chef will come to your Barcelona apartment and cook a meal for two or more based on sample menus that she will send to you beforehand. This experienced Barcelona personal chef can also organize wine pairings – a skill she learned from her father, who was a sommelier.
For hens parties and birthday celebrations, we can also organise a bespoke bakery service and full British afternoon tea on the rooftop or terrace of your Barcelona apartment.
Our Iberian Escapes ‘cake lady’ bakes exquisite cakes, scones, fancy sandwiches and all high-tea delicacies – delivered to your door for a special occasion that fuses cultures and creates beautiful memories on your Barcelona holiday.

Learn To Cook From Your Barcelona Private Chef
For those who have rented a holiday apartment in Sitges, the popular, picturesque seaside town close to Barcelona, we can introduce you to a Michelin-trained culinary professional who will teach you the delights of Catalan cuisine in his own state-of-the-art kitchen.
During this masterclass, you will learn how to prepare pa amb tomaquet (the ubiquitous tomato bread of Catalonia), seafood paella and sangria – an iconic Spanish menu that at the end of the class is enjoyed by all who helped make it.
If you prefer to dine in the comfort of your Sitges tourist rental, he will also come and prepare the menu for you, leaving you to decide whether you would like to participate or simply kick back with a glass of wine and enjoy the delicate aromas wafting from your kitchen.
A Five-Star Experience
Are you holding a special event in your Barcelona holiday apartment? Perhaps an anniversary or work meeting?
For a five-star gastro experience in your luxury abode, our experienced private chefs can create intimate bespoke dinner parties or cater to weddings, hen nights and other celebrations. We can also supply bartenders and wait and cleaning staff, who take care of every last detail.
Menus are based around fresh, seasonal ingredients, artful presentation, and the level of culinary sophistication that Barcelona is renowned for – a total experience that you will savour forever.

Cook & Sightsee
Why not combine a culinary experience with discovering Barcelona’s famous gothic quarter?
One of the best cooking classes in Barcelona is located in a show kitchen and events space deep in the Barri Gòtic (and curiously close to one Barcelona’s most ancient relics – the remaining columns of the old Roman temple) where expert cooks impart dynamic classes and foodie experiences for foreigners – a service they also extend to tourists in the comfort of their own Barcelona holiday apartment.

From private chefs to private yachts, we cater to all tastes!
