From Our Table

What Copenhagen
is saying

"We hired a GÆSTR cook for our anniversary. She made a five-course meal in our tiny Vesterbro kitchen, and it was better than any restaurant we've been to. The kids even helped plate dessert."

Sofie & Mikkel

Vesterbro

"As a tourist staying in an Airbnb, having a local cook prepare traditional smørrebrød in our rental was the highlight of our Copenhagen trip. Authentic, personal, unforgettable."

James T.

Visiting from London

"I use GÆSTR every Sunday for meal prep. My cook comes for 3 hours, preps the entire week, and leaves the kitchen spotless. It's cheaper than ordering Wolt five nights a week."

Anne-Marie K.

Østerbro

The GÆSTR Philosophy

The GÆSTR Philosophy

"Copenhageners value hygge — that specific sense of cozy intimacy. Restaurants are loud; delivery is lonely. GÆSTR creates the middle ground."

We believe the private chef should be a weekly habit for the middle class, not a yearly luxury for the elite. By charging per hour instead of per head, we turned fine dining into an everyday possibility.
