Chef whites and catering uniforms, embroidered with your logo

Kitchen kit has to survive heat, hot washes and a twelve-hour shift, then still look sharp at the pass. We supply chef whites, jackets, aprons and trousers for restaurants, cafés, schools and contract caterers, embroidered with your logo and each chef's name.

Trusted by food teams including Subway.

Two chefs in embroidered black and white chef's jackets in a professional kitchen

Chef jackets for every kitchen

Classic double-breasted chef whites, short-sleeve jackets for hot kitchens, and black or grey jackets for open kitchens where the team is on show. Most styles have stud or press-stud fastenings that come off for washing, and breathable panels under the arms. Ladies' fits are available in most ranges, not just smaller men's sizes.

Aprons, trousers and hats

Bib aprons, waist aprons and bistro aprons in cotton, poly-cotton and wipe-clean fabrics. Chef trousers in black, blue check and houndstooth, with elasticated or drawstring waists. Skull caps, bandanas and disposable hats complete the kit.

Embroidery that lasts in a hot wash

Chef whites get washed hotter and more often than almost any other uniform. We embroider rather than print on chef jackets because stitching survives repeated hot washes without cracking or fading. A logo on the chest and the chef's name on the opposite side is the most popular layout, and personalising each jacket costs the same whatever the order size.

From one new starter to a whole group

Order a single jacket for a new commis chef or kit out every site in a restaurant group. Your logo is stored after the first order, so reorders are quick. Multi-site caterers can use our free Secure Buying Wardrobe: each kitchen orders its own approved kit online, and head office gets one monthly invoice.

Front of house too

Waiting staff, bar teams and receptionists need a different look from the kitchen. See our hospitality uniforms for polos, shirts, waistcoats and front-of-house aprons in matching brand colours.

Frequently asked questions

What fabric are chef whites made from?

Most are poly-cotton, usually around 65% polyester and 35% cotton. It washes hot, dries quickly and needs little ironing. 100% cotton jackets are cooler to wear but crease more and take longer to dry.

Can you embroider each chef's name?

Yes. Names can go on the chest, sleeve or collar, in the same thread colour as your logo or a contrast colour.

Is there a minimum order?

No. You can order a single embroidered chef jacket. Logo set-up is free on orders over £150.

Can I try a jacket before ordering for the team?

Yes. We send free samples so you can check the fit and fabric first.
