Contact Our School

Cookery School at Little Portland Street:
Located in Marylebone, Central London, Cookery School’s aim is to take people back to honest, homely, delicious cooking. There is nothing cheffy or fancy about our food – we simply love sharing our ideas for delicious home-made food, using common utensils that can be found in most home kitchens. Our focus is on demystifying cooking, removing jargon and bringing back solid cooking skills, using high quality, primarily organic, sustainable ingredients. Just a stone’s throw from Oxford Circus is an unexpected gem in the heart of London, UK. Our school is very close to Oxford Circus tube station, at the end of Little Portland Street closest to Regent Street, near London's West End.

Rosalind Rathouse:
