JOIN A PUBLIC COOKING CLASSES

Learn new skills in the kitchen

Our classes are all about having fun, getting stuck in, and connecting with others through the joy of food. Whether you're a kitchen newbie or a seasoned cook, there’s something for everyone. Just bring your love for food and we’ll take care of the rest!

Every class is hosted by our talented team of professional chefs and cookery tutors, who are as passionate about teaching as they are about cooking. And sometimes, we even welcome special guest chefs who bring dishes from their own cultures – so you might learn to whip up something exciting like Turkish Mantu or traditional Trini-style flatbreads.

Most of our sessions run in the evenings, from 6:30-9:30pm. You’ll get 3 hours of hands-on cooking, and then we’ll sit down together to share the amazing food we’ve just created. And trust us – there’s usually more than enough to take home, so don’t forget to bring your Tupperware!

 

And perhaps the most important bit! 100% of the profits raised from these classes go directly back into the Coexist Community Kitchen, helping to support our outreach work with people experiencing marginalisation. ​​

Celebrate with a feast you cook together!

Gather your favourite people for a private cooking experience you’ll all remember. Whether it’s a birthday bash, hen or stag party, or just an excuse to get your foodie friends together, we’ll help you cook up something special.

Your group will spend 3 hours in our kitchen with one of our chefs, learning new skills and creating a delicious three-course meal together. When the cooking’s done, you’ll sit down to enjoy your creations in great company. We can create a menu to suit your group’s tastes – from a Mediterranean mezze spread to an indulgent Italian comfort feast, or something spicy and adventurous like Thai BBQ or Indian street food. We can also set up a bar if needed.

  • We can accommodate up to 15 people for a fully hands-on cooking experience – or if your group is larger, we can adapt the format – just get in touch to discuss options.

  • Pricing is £600 for up to 10 people, plus £55 for each additional guest (up to 15 people total). We can also chat about drink options to make your celebration extra special.
