Frequently asked questions

Classes will be advertised as being vegetarian, vegan, GF, and any known allergens will be highlighted. Should you have any special dietary requirements, please speak to us before booking to discuss. We can make adjustments for some classes, but this may not be possible for all.

This depends on the class. The majority of our classes are aimed at those who have little to no cooking or kitchen experience. We will occasionally offer classes that are aimed at people with an intermediate level of skill. This will be detailed in our class description.

Yes. We have 8 hobs and ovens, and plenty of food preparation spaces for all participants.

The age limit will be specified for our community classes and depends on the theme. For child and parent classes, the minimum age is generally 8 years old. Some will be 16+ and mixed age groups. For commercial classes, guests should be no younger than 12 years old and anyone 18 or under should be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Some classes may not be suitable for under 18s, but we will make clear the suitability for each one.

We will provide by email recipes for all the meals, baked goods, desserts etc. that you will make at our classes.

You can change or cancel your booking if you give us notice of no less than 48 hours from the class start time. We can arrange for you to join the next available class, or for cancellations offer a voucher of equivalent value to your class.

Yes, we encourage this to minimise waste. Generally at the end of each class there is time for you to enjoy your creation with the group, but if you wish to leave you can take your food away. We ask that you bring your own food containers, as these are not provided. Any leftovers that you do not wish to take away will be kept for staff lunches, so that food waste is kept to an absolute minimum.

Aprons, utensils, ingredients are provided for you. For many classes, we may ask you to bring along food storage containers so that you can take home your creations or leftovers. This will be advertised on our class description where appropriate.

We ask that you arrive at least 10-15 minutes before class to give you time to get settled, grab a refreshment, wash your hands, and get set up at your cookery station.

We have ample parking right outside the kitchen for guests to use.

Absolutely. Many people come to classes alone. We offer a welcoming, fun, and friendly environment for you to learn. Communal cooking and eating is an excellent way to meet and make new friends.

We ask that your clothes are clean and suitable for use in the kitchen, e.g. no filthy overalls or workwear, also that you do not wear open toed shoes or flip flops. You may wish to wear comfortable clothing and footwear as you will be on your feet often.
