What is Feastly Spread?
Feastly Spread is a pilot coordination platform for vacation-rental groups that want one Kitchen Helper to handle dinner, prep next-day meals, and clean up after.
FAQ
Pilot answers, in plain English.
Feastly Spread is still in pilot mode, so the answers below are simple, direct, and focused on how this works in the field.
Trust
Warm, practical, and built for real trips
Your Kitchen Helper handles the food so your group does not have to.
What is a Kitchen Helper?
A Kitchen Helper is an independent local participant who handles the food work that matters: shopping, cooking, prep, and cleanup.
Is this a private chef?
No. Feastly Spread is built as a practical vacation-home meal solution, not a luxury chef service.
What if the rental kitchen is not usable?
Guests and Kitchen Helpers need to confirm kitchen access and usability before the dinner. If the kitchen is not workable, Feastly Spread will review options case by case in pilot mode.
How are allergies handled?
Guests are responsible for clearly sharing allergies and dietary restrictions before the dinner. Kitchen Helpers confirm what they can accommodate before the booking is finalized.
Are groceries included in the deposit?
No. The $500 deposit reserves your Kitchen Helper and covers their time. Groceries are separate and usually run about $300-$450 for 6-12 people.
What if no Kitchen Helper is available?
If Feastly Spread cannot confirm a Kitchen Helper for your trip, your deposit is refunded. Pilot bookings only move forward once Kitchen Helper matching is confirmed.
When is the deposit refundable?
The booking is fully refundable before your Kitchen Helper is confirmed. After confirmation, you can still cancel for a full refund until 48 hours before dinner. Within 48 hours, the booking is locked and non-refundable.
How do groceries work?
Groceries are separate from the $500 deposit. Guests reimburse the Kitchen Helper for actual grocery cost, usually about $300-$450 for 6-12 people depending on menu and trip length.
How do Kitchen Helpers get paid?
Kitchen Helpers are paid after completed dinner nights. During the pilot, payouts are handled daily for completed bookings. Tips are separate.
What if plans change?
Tell Feastly Spread as soon as possible. Free cancellation applies until your booking is confirmed, and then up to 48 hours before dinner. Once your Kitchen Helper is scheduled and within 48 hours, the booking is locked to protect the Kitchen Helper from last-minute cancellations.
How are Kitchen Helpers vetted?
Pilot Kitchen Helpers are reviewed manually before being matched. Feastly Spread looks at communication, cooking background, menu fit, and whether the helper can reliably handle large-group vacation meals.
Why are there no reviews yet?
Feastly Spread is in pilot mode and still collecting its first real dinner proof. That means early groups get more hands-on coordination while the service builds real photos, feedback, and reviews.
