At Prue Leith Chefs Academy we offer hands-on, City & Guilds accredited culinary training covering everything from classic French cuisine to exotic Ethiopian food culture and avant-garde molecular gastronomy. Whether you are an experienced food professional looking to upgrade existing skills or a novice embarking on an epicurean journey of discovery, now is the time to start cooking your way into a delicious future with us.

The scope and strengths of our curriculum are evident in the successes of our past pupils who have not only worked for Jamie Oliver in London but also represented their country at the Culinary Olympics and won gold at the World Gourmand Cookbook awards in Beijing. With student intakes in both January and July, emulating their achievements is always just a phone call away.

The practical component of our courses can be sampled at the multi award winning, on site Leith's restaurant where our a la carte and set menu options are as delectable as they are diverse. Whether you sip lavender martinis with the object of your affection on the terrace or conclude business deals over truffle scented cream of artichoke soup in the dining room, Leith's is a spot to savour and relish.

Our landscaped, lavender lined gardens are ideal for summer weddings and cocktail parties under the stars. Relax into Sunday carveries or treat yourself to the sublime splendour of a baby shower complimented by hand crafted chocolates, cupcakes and silver cake stands. Our cheese and wine pairings make for previously unimagined heights of book club bliss.

So whether you want to cook up a storm or enjoy an evening of epicurean elegance, Prue Leith Chefs Academy offers a taste of perfection and a bite at the future.
