About L'atelier des Chefs
L’atelier des Chefs is a cookery school and events venue based in Central London. We are one of the largest cookery schools in the UK, welcoming up to 1,800 clients a month at our west-end location. Our cookery classes range from 30 minutes to 4 hours and cover all world cuisines. Prices start at £15 per person for our unique 30 minute lunchtime class. All classes are run by professional chefs and offer a truly unique hands-on cook & dine experience.
L’atelier des Chefs also organises private and corporate events; hosting corporate, team building and client hospitality events, PR, brand and product launch events. We can accommodate groups of 12 - 180 people across two kitchens and dining areas.
L’atelier des Chefs also operates in Dubai and France. With a network of 18 ateliers we are the largest cookery school in Europe. In 2010, over 150,000 people attended a cooking class with L’atelier des Chefs.
L'atelier des Chefs was founded in Paris in 2004 by French brothers Nicolas and Francois Bergerault where they launched the first 30 minute cooking class. Their sole aim: to revitalise the Frenchs’ relationship with cooking and entice them 'back to the kitchen' by offering hands-on cooking classes run by professional chefs.
Success was immediate and the Paris atelier was the first of many, with further ateliers opening throughout France, Dubai, and of course London in less than five years.
