Fresh Foods, Made Local
Order freshly prepared meals, baked goods, and snacks from local cooks and food businesses near you.
Done Different
Cook4U is the place where home cooks and food businesses can sell prepared meals, baked goodies, and delicious snacks straight to you! No big brands, just real food from local people.
Stock up for a few days, not just tonight
Cook4U isn't a last-minute takeaway. Fill your basket from local cooks, stock up your fridge for the next few days, and take the stress out of figuring out what's for dinner.
We make getting started as easy as possible
Food hygiene registered
Every kitchen on Cook4U holds a valid food hygiene certificate. We verify this personally before you go live.
Council approved
We'll tell you exactly what your local council requires — and point you to the right contacts to get approved fast.
Home kitchens welcome
You don't need a commercial kitchen. Your home kitchen is fine, as long as it meets food safety requirements — and we'll help you get there.
Stripe payments built in
Customers pay securely via Stripe. Your earnings are paid out directly, no invoicing, no chasing.

Empowering Food Entrepreneurs & Local Business
Start selling from your home kitchen or scale up your café, restaurant, or catering business. Cook4U gives you the platform and the support to succeed.
Community Impact
We're committed to tackling food and nutrition poverty. Cook4U will reinvest profits, support donations, and let cooks give meals directly to those who need them. Good food for everyone!
