Why choose Rick Stein's Cookery School?

Since opening its doors in Padstow in 2000, Rick Stein’s Cookery School has welcomed aspiring chefs and enthusiastic home cooks from across the UK and beyond. Originally established to provide intensive seafood training for chefs at The Seafood Restaurant, the school quickly expanded its offering after the launch of its first leisure courses proved an instant success.

Recognised through regional tourism and cookery school awards, Rick Stein’s Cookery School has built a reputation for excellence in seafood education.
