"He had one brief glimspe of an enormous, high-ceilinged room, large as the Great Hall above it, with mounds of glittering brass pots and pans heaped around the stone walls, and a great brick fireplace at the other end"

— The Hogwarts Kitchen in 1994

Hogwarts Kitchens is located directly under the Great Hall, down the same staircase that leads to the Hufflepuff Common Room. It contains tables identical to those in the Great Hall and are directly below them; food must simply placed on the tables in the kitchens, and it magically appears in the Great Hall. The kitchens are staffed by over 100 house-elves including Dobby, Winky and Kreacher (since Harry Potter inherited him and ordered him there). To gain access to the Kitchens, one must tickle the pear on a fruit portrait, which turns into a door knob.
