I'm Peter Knibb, a private chef in Oxfordshire

I'm Peter Knibb, a private chef based in Oxfordshire, cooking seasonal British food for dinner parties, celebrations and guests staying in holiday homes across the Cotswolds and surrounding area.
With more than 25 years' experience, including co-owning Restaurant 23 where we held 3 AA Rosettes, I bring restaurant-quality food into people's homes in a relaxed, personal way.
Every menu is planned around the season, your guests and the occasion, with everything taken care of from preparation to service and clear-down.
My wife Annie is also part of the business, helping behind the scenes and making sure everything comes together smoothly.
Based in Oxfordshire, we cover the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and surrounding areas.
You enjoy the company. I'll take care of dinner.

Annie
Annie brings a calm, professional front-of-house presence to private dining events, helping make each evening feel relaxed, well organised and carefully looked after from start to finish.
Her background includes managing Restaurant 23 in Royal Leamington Spa, where the business held 3 AA Rosettes, and front-of-house and reception experience at Pied à Terre in London, a two Michelin-starred restaurant known for precise, discreet service.
With formal hotel management training in Hamburg, including housekeeping, presentation standards, surface care and property readiness, Annie understands the small details that help a private event run smoothly.
At events, she can support with welcoming guests, drinks, table service, clearing down and keeping the flow of the evening comfortable and unobtrusive.
