How it works

Simple for vendors. Rewarding for hosts.

SpareKitchen makes it easy to rent or let spare commercial kitchen time in London — by the shift, the day or the month.

For food vendors

Find, book and cook

Street food, dark-kitchen brands, meal prep, caterers and bakers.

Browse by map and filter by equipment, hours, price and size. Save favourites to compare.

Ask the host anything, or book a time to see the space before you commit.

Pick your dates. Verified vendors can instant-book; otherwise the host confirms.

Deposit and rent are handled by Stripe. Your documents are already on file, so approval is quick.

For hosts

Pubs, cafés, restaurants and production units with idle kitchen time.

Add photos, size, equipment, the hours you’re free, your price and deposit.

Full-time, specific days, nights or flexible — you’re always in control.

Review a vendor’s food hygiene, certificates and insurance, then confirm.

Stripe Connect pays you automatically every week. One simple fee, no minimums.

Short & part-time

Hourly, daily or by shift — like “Mon–Wed 6am–2pm”. Not just 6–12 month licences.

8% flat fee

One platform fee shown upfront on every listing. No hidden minimums.

Instant booking

Verified vendors can book instantly. Viewing requests stay optional.

Document vault

Hygiene ratings, Level 2 certificates, insurance and allergen info ready so hosts approve fast.
