Paper log books & manual records
Typically costs 3–5 hrs of staff time every week — plus the risk of fines if records are missing during an EHO inspection.

Employment solicitor & HR spreadsheets
Solicitor-drafted staff contracts cost £150–£500 per contract. Add HR spreadsheets, manual rota-building (2–3 hrs/week), and chasing signatures.
Contracts, rotas & HR — all included

are sharing about us

Rated 5 stars on Trustpilot ↗
"We've started using this, and I love it! It's been designed and developed by someone who has hands on experience of working in commercial kitchens and hospitality. The result is a system that is both easy to use and flexible enough to cover a broad range of requirements. All the food safety stuff is there, but loads more as well, including managing staff rotas, menus, custom checklists, and document storage. Excellent value for money."
Verified Customer
A very well designed solution
"We just happened to stumble across CompliChef a few days before they launched their new app and thought, let's give these guys a go. Well, I'm SO pleased that we did. Right from the get-go the owners were fantastic — we made a few errors when first setting things up and they fixed things within the hour! After using the KitchenPortal for a few weeks, we looked into their Staff & HR app. There were a few things that didn't work for our business, so we sent a quick email. Within the hour we had a response with steps implemented and updated ready for use the very next day. This company go the extra mile and their communication is 10/10. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

10/10 every time! — Trustpilot
"We have been using CompliChef for our kitchen compliance over the last four months, and the daily record logs have been truly invaluable. Our team absolutely loves the clear, effective structure of the record logs and, most importantly, the helpful reminders. Since implementing CompliChef, we have not missed a single daily task or log in four months. The system provides peace of mind and ensures we maintain consistent, high standards across the board. Highly recommend this for any professional kitchen looking to streamline their daily records!"

FAQ

Questions we get
all the time

Is CompliChef suitable for a small café or single kitchen?

Absolutely. The Multi Staff Kitchen plan starts at £29/month and is designed for small kitchens and private chefs with up to 15 staff. You get full access to KitchenPortal for digital food safety logs and StaffPortal for rota and HR management — all the compliance tools you need, without paying for features you don't use.

What is Natasha's Law and how does CompliChef help me comply?

Natasha's Law (the Food Information (Amendment) (England) Regulations 2021) requires all pre-packed for direct sale (PPDS) food to carry a full ingredients list with allergens emphasised. CompliChef's Allergy Hub lets you manage and print compliant allergen labels for every item on your menu, keeping you fully on the right side of the law.

Can my kitchen staff use CompliChef on a phone or tablet?

Yes — CompliChef is fully cloud-based and works on any device with a browser. No apps to download, no software to install. Whether your team is logging temperatures on a kitchen tablet, checking rotas on a phone, or reviewing records on a laptop, it all works seamlessly.

How does CompliChef help during an EHO inspection?

Every record in CompliChef is timestamped and stored securely in the cloud. When an EHO officer arrives, you generate a secure one-time access code in seconds — giving them read-only access to your compliance records without handing over your login. No scrambling for paper files, no missing records.

Is there a free trial? Do I need a credit card?

Yes, you can start a free trial with no credit card required. Sign up and explore the full platform before committing to a plan. Our team is also happy to walk you through a live demo if you'd prefer to see it in action first.

Does CompliChef replace our paper food safety records?

That's exactly what it's built for. CompliChef replaces all your paper HACCP records, temperature logs, cleaning schedules, and checklists with a digital system that's faster to complete, easier to audit, and always ready for inspection. The log books go in the bin.

Can CompliChef print physical food labels — allergen labels, use-by stickers?

Yes — CompliChef Labels is our physical label printing add-on, available as a fully managed Sunmi thermal printer device. It prints allergen labels, use-by date labels, and Natasha's Law compliant PPDS sale labels — all pulled directly from your KitchenPortal recipe and allergen data, so there's no double entry and no risk of a mismatched label. The device arrives pre-configured with 1,500 label rolls included per month from £30/month (requires an ecosystem plan).
