Recent reviews of Best of British Cooking Class - Beef Wellington

  • 5/5 from Mitchell Crotch, attended Jul 2026: My partner and I attended this class last week, with two other groups also participating. The class was very intimate, with only 6 people in total plus Helen who was teaching the class. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The food was amazing, and Helen was sublime. She explained every part of the class in detail and was as knowledgeable as you'd expect her to be.
  • 1/5 from Laura Bryant, attended Nov 2025: I had food poisoning and wasn't able to attend. I tried calling and emailing to discuss this and finally got a message the next morning saying as I didn't have insurance there is no possibility to rebook another date but I can get 20 percent off my next booking!!. Really inflexible, disappointing and frankly patronising.
  • 5/5 from Jake Hunter, attended Aug 2025: Fantsastic class that I could not recommend enough. Richard was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but so helpful and engaging throughout the entire class; he really made it. The venue was absolutely perfect, and we were provided with bottomless wine throughout. I learned so much and would certainly go again!
  • 5/5 from Ross Miller, attended Feb 2025: The class was very good with a great mixture of learning and practical work. Social element with the other attendees. The staff were very attentive and supportive. Overall relaxed experience and great date night idea
  • 5/5 from Sharmeen Hasan, attended Feb 2025: Really enjoyed the evening & great tips! Thankyou!
  • 5/5 from Daniel Greenberg, attended Jan 2024: Was a great experience. Wish there were longer courses so we could make more of the recipe ourselves
  • 5/5 from James Carey, attended Jul 2022: My wife and I attended the Beef Wellington class and it was great from start to finish. The teacher was very friendly, enthusiastic, explained all the details and answered any questions really well. All of the ingredients were top quality, and the venue itself is great. Our food turned out fantastic and we left with full bellies and a big smile on our face. Would heartily recommend!
