FAQs

What kind of event can you host a supper club for?
You can host events like birthdays, social gatherings, engagement dinners, book clubs, pr/business dinners etc with us.

What if the chef is ill?
All our chefs have a backup plan and will have replacements.


What's the deal with music?
Most of our venues include built-in speakers. However, if you need speakers to plug your phone in somewhere, or want to bring a DJ in, we can ask, just let us know.

How do drinks work?
It varies from venue to venue, but usually, we work with the venue to put down a bar min spend and will provide a drinks menu for your event. The guests pay upfront for their meal, part of the venue and our 10% service charge, then buy drinks at the venue. This also allows guests to choose what they want to drink. Each venue is different but will usually provide wine, 2 cocktails, and beer. We will always provide water on the table. Please let us know in your enquiry about any other drinks you'd like us to supply.

Can I pay for the full venue cost and a bar tab?
Yes, you can. The bar tab needs to at least start from the minimum bar spend.

How much is the venue’s minimum bar spend?

The minimum bar spend varies between venues + your number of guests. This is usually between £300 - £900.

Can I get a refund for my ticket?
As a small business, we cannot refund your ticket after purchase. However, you can transfer your ticket to another attendee.


‍How do payments work?
All payments are handled through Come Together. If you are hosting with us, we set up a ticket page for your event, so all your guests can make payments directly through us.


Dietary and Allergy Requirements
Dietary requirements vary from chef to chef and are usually specified on their chef profile pages. When your guests secure their payment with us, it's required that they specify their dietary requirements and allergies even if they have none. We will work with your chosen chef to make sure all ingredients that your guests are allergic to, are replaced in the dish or specifically for that guest.


‍What if not all my guests show up?
All payments will go through Come Together. The final cost of your event is based on the number of guests we agree on. The final amount of guests needs to be known to us 1 week before the event for the chef to prepare ingredients. If there are fewer than the agreed on guests after paying the deposit, or dropouts within the week before the event, it will be your responsibility to cover the cost per person that does not show up. However, we encourage you to find replacements and will add an RSVP date to the invitation.


How do costs work?
If you are hosting, you'll pay a deposit to secure the booking (please see deposit info below), then the meal and venue cost will be divided among your guests, and Come together will then add a 10% service fee per person. All payments need to be made before the event. The deposit needs to be secured a month before the event, and all guest payments need to be made 1 week before the event at the latest.


‍How much is the deposit (Come Together Booking, Chef and Venue deposit)?
The deposits are combined with the Come Together booking, chef deposit and venue deposit. The cost varies from chef and space, but the Come Together booking deposit will always be £150. This cost will not be returned if the host cancels. The deposits will be transferred back after the event as long as there is no overrun to the event slot, damage to the space or breakages. It is up to the host to make sure these rules are followed. The cost of a deposit in total is usually between £250-£650.


‍How are chefs paid?
Our chefs get paid 100% of the menu costs.
