Friendly host and good food
Our host Dan was on time for pick up. He was very friendly and welcoming and took us through the beautiful Edwardian neighborhood to his home. His house was wonderful as well. We meet his cute dog and his family who were just as friendly. Dan told us some history of London and the food on the menu. We prepped scotch egg, fish & chips, and beef wellington but that’s it. Dan did the cooking. After awhile my husband and I felt a little forgotten about and felt the family members were a little distracting to our experience. I completely understand that it’s their house but we were paying to be there and we were supposed to be having a private class and to hear them loudly talking about their day and what they were going to eat was a little off putting. Overall, the food was good and it was still an experience and I would do it again. It was just different than previous classes we have taken.
Response from the operator: Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback. I’m really pleased that you enjoyed the food, our home and meeting the family – and especially that you’d still do the experience again. I’m sorry that there were moments when you felt a little forgotten about. The whole idea of the experience is to welcome guests into a real London home, rather than a professional cookery school. Thank you again for the constructive feedback. It’s genuinely useful and It was a pleasure welcoming you both into our home.

Home away from home but better
Amazing private cooking class and dining experience with fabulous host, Dan, who welcomed us graciously at the door with a glass of sparkling English wine and gin and tonic. Sit at his kitchen table, don your apron and be ready to learn new techniques in cooking as Dan describes not only the history of each dish you prepare but short cuts. The food is fabulous in Dan's quaint dining room. Service extraordinare! Will not disappoint. 7 out of 5 stars!

Cooking with Dan at his home.
An absolutely fantastic evening with Dan, where we learned to cook some classic English dishes. Dan is a lovely host and chef. We even had the pleasure of meeting almost the entire family! It was an unforgettable experience that we highly recommend. The Swedish couple.

Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London cost?
+
Prices start at £120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London?
+
Included: Professional Chef (guide); and All food and an aperitif. Not included: Gratuities; and Private transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London?
+
Meet outside by the car park exit to the station (Exit 1) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Best of British Cooking Class and Dinner in London?
+

+
