    Frequently Asked Questions

    Whats the difference between an individual ticket and a shared ticket?

    An individual ticket is for anyone who wants an individual cooking station with their own set of ingredients, not to be shared with anyone else.T

    The shared ticket allows you to bring a friend or family member, you would share the cooking station as well as sharing the ingredients to create the dishes together. The ticket is priced only slightly more than an individual ticket, meaning you both  get to experience the cooking class together without the need to buy two tickets.

    If you are wanting to get the full experience and have your own individual dishes to taste and take home then we would recommend the individual ticket.

    Classes are held at The Cookery School at Cooks Boutique, in Letchworth Garden City.
