Since opening its doors in December 2009, the Edinburgh Food & Drink Academy has been teaching classic and creative cookery in a professional but informal atmosphere. We changed our name from the Edinburgh New Town Cookery School to the Edinburgh Food & Drink Academy in March 2026, to reflect our role as a home for food and drink education, collaboration and progression; rooted in Edinburgh, connected to the UK and reaching internationally.
Situated in the heart of the Scottish capital’s city centre, the Edinburgh Food & Drink Academy offers courses, designed to put every student on the right path to becoming a successful cook.
The diverse range of courses offer something for every level of ability, from chefs to homemakers and students to food enthusiasts. A practical, professional approach will give students the skills to cook with confidence and develop the essential skills necessary to be a success in the culinary world.
The academy spans five floors and offers panoramic views across the Firth of Forth. The venue has been renovated to provide a fully equipped teaching kitchen alongside a demonstration theatre, with capacity for 50 and a function room, which presents the ideal dining setting for corporate entertainment or team building. The building is also suitable for PR events and product launches. The range of facilities on offer allows the academy to host a broad spectrum of cookery courses and activities.
Our teachers and staff are highly qualified and bring many years of experience to the academy.
