What are the best cooking games on PC? If you want to relax and create mouth-watering masterpieces or challenge your friends to some kitchen chaos, the wonderful world of cooking and restaurant games doesn’t disappoint.

You don’t have to be a dab hand in the kitchen to work your way around these chef specials. If, like us, your dinner guests smile politely through a plate of charred chicken and accomplishing the perfection of a Gordon Ramsey special seems like a distant dream, this platter of the best cooking games is a much more satisfying way to scratch that cooking itch.

Cooking games and restaurant games don’t always have to appeal to the chef in us; they can be colourful management games or require some serious recipe grinding. They can also be a relaxing way to pass the time, whether that’s by throwing tomatoes at your friend to chop in Overcooked, or dragging a monster home for your evening meal in Battle Chef Brigade. If you’re after that authentic cooking experience, look no further as we’ve collated a list of the best cooking games on PC.
