How It Works
Two paths: browse kitchens and register interest, or publish a public chef page that pubs can find and contact directly.
- 1
Create your profile
Tell us what kind of kitchen you need — cuisine, budget, location, how you'll use the space. Takes 2 minutes.
- 2
Publish your chef page (optional, recommended)
Add a bio, menu, and photos and publish a shareable profile at
pubkitchens.co.uk/chef/your-name. Share it on Instagram or send to pubs directly — they can request contact through PubKitchens. - 3
We connect you with pubs
Pubs contact you via the form on your page — your details stay private, and replies go directly to your email. You negotiate terms yourself; we're the introducer, not the middleman.
For chefs and food operators
Your own page, shareable everywhere
Build a proper chef portfolio on PubKitchens — menu, photos, style, the cities you work in. Use it as your calling card when pitching pubs, or share the link on Instagram, WhatsApp, and your email signature. Pubs that find your page can request contact through us, and you reply directly.
Why Rent a Pub Kitchen?
Instant infrastructure. Commercial kitchens cost £30-100k to fit out. A pub kitchen is already built, rated, and has extraction. Walk in Monday, trade Tuesday.
Built-in customers. The pub already has regulars. Serve them food and you have revenue from day one — no marketing spend, no delivery commission, no cold start.
Low commitment. Most pub kitchen agreements are licence to occupy, not a lease. Typical terms: 6-12 months with break clauses. Test your concept without betting the house.
Delivery ready. Most pub kitchens are already approved for Deliveroo, Uber Eats, and Just Eat. Two revenue streams — dine-in and delivery — from the same kitchen.
Ready to find your kitchen?
Browse pubs in your target city. When you find one that looks right, register your interest and we'll do the rest.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these real pubs?
Yes. Every pub listed on PubKitchens is a real, verified venue — name, address, and hygiene rating sourced from the Food Standards Agency. We don't fabricate listings.
Why don't you show the pub name?
We list pubs by area, hygiene rating, and features so you can find the right fit. The full venue details (name, address, contact) are shared when you create a profile and register interest. This protects both the pub's privacy and the value of our introductions.
What happens after I create my profile?
We match your profile (cuisine, budget, location, kitchen use type) against pubs in your target area. When we find a potential match, we introduce you directly to the pub. You negotiate your own terms.
Is it free?
Yes. Creating a profile is free and always will be. We're building the marketplace — right now we need food operators signed up so we can approach pubs with proof of demand.
Do I need a food hygiene certificate?
You'll need at least a Level 2 Food Hygiene Certificate to operate a commercial kitchen. Most pub landlords will also require public liability insurance and an up-to-date food safety management system.
Can I do delivery-only from a pub kitchen?
Yes. Many operators run delivery-only from pub kitchens, and most venues are already approved for Deliveroo, Uber Eats, and Just Eat. Some landlords prefer a hybrid model where you also serve pub customers. We'll match you with pubs that suit your model.
