How to choose
The traditional English scone-making and tea workshop is the most reviewed food class in London, and only an hour. For a longer scone class, take the scone-making workshop from scratch. For something savoury and British, the pork pie cookery class is hands-on and highly rated.
Formats: scone and British-baking workshops; pasta-making with Prosecco; Indian/curry, Thai and sushi classes reflecting London’s diversity; bread and patisserie; private and team classes.
Price and time: roughly £40 to £90 for a one- to three-hour class; more for longer classes with a full meal and drinks.
A world of classes in one city
London’s kitchens are as global as its restaurants. On the British side, scone-making and afternoon-tea baking workshops are a charming, very local choice – you leave able to recreate a cream tea at home. Beyond that the city’s diversity shows: hands-on Indian curry classes, Thai, Japanese sushi, Middle-Eastern mezze, and Italian pasta-making (often with unlimited Prosecco and antipasti). Most run two to three hours, are beginner-friendly, and end with everyone eating together.
Choosing a class
Decide whether you want to learn something distinctly British (scones, pies, a Sunday roast) or one of the world cuisines London does so well. Pick a small-group class for the social side or a private one for a couple or family, check whether a full meal and drinks are included, and mention dietary needs – most classes adapt easily. Pair it with a London food tour on another day.
