This bespoke experience is designed for companies & teams looking for a unique way to bond over food in a relaxed and friendly kitchen setting.

Learn to make delicious food and get to know your team

Looking for a team building activity in Edinburgh that’s a little different from the usual work social? At The Wee Kitchen, we bring colleagues together over good food, a bit of friendly competition and plenty of laughs.

Our private corporate cooking classes are relaxed, hands-on and designed to get everyone involved, whether you’re a team of confident home cooks or complete beginners. Choose from a range of cuisines, roll up your sleeves and work together to create a delicious meal before sitting down to enjoy everything you’ve made.

Whether you’re organising a team away day, celebrating a company milestone, entertaining clients or simply looking for an excuse to get everyone together outside the office, a cooking class at The Wee Kitchen is a brilliant way to connect over something other than work.

You'll make...

what's cooking at your next team social

During your masterclass we’ll cook a sit-down multi dish meal, based on whichever menu you choose. From street food to curries and Japanese bar snacks, you’ll master new techniques and learn a dish to impress with at home.

Every cooking class is a hands-on experience, we can tailor the class to be more or less hands on depending on what your group would prefer.

Choose from 9 different cuisines and pick the one that suits your team best: Scottish, Japanese, Sri Lankan, Greek, Lebanese, Spanish, Korean, Chinese or Indian.

What's included...

For big companies or small teams that love food

Private classes can be totally tailored based on your group’s likes and dislikes. From dietary requirements to ‘I actually can’t stand beetroot’, we can adapt our classes to suit your needs.
