Cooking classes in Cork

Three hosts run cooking classes and chef-led experiences that reach Cork today, priced from €50 to €150 a person. Ingredients are included for the classes and the price is shown before you book.

One host is based in Cork city and teaches Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cooking, at €50 a person for groups of 10 and up. Another is a Cork host offering a French cuisine experience at €150 a person, built around rich dishes such as coq au vin with techniques taught as you go, for groups of up to 20. The third is a Killarney host who travels about 66 km to teach Italian pasta, making three types of pasta with three simple sauces, at €75 a person for groups of up to 10.

That is a short list. Cork has fewer hosts than Dublin, and the page shows what is actually bookable today rather than filling space with classes that do not exist yet.

Hen parties, birthdays, date nights and small team days are the usual bookings, and the hosts above work with private groups. Message the host with your numbers, any dietary needs and a date, or book a date they have opened. The Cork city host lists a travel radius of 100 km, which covers Kinsale and East Cork. Enquiring is free and needs no card, and guest numbers can be changed up to 24 hours before.

The price is per person, so the cost of a group is the price times the number of guests. Six people at €50 come to €300, at €75 to €450, and at €150 to €900. Your card is only charged once the host accepts the booking. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free needs are normal requests, so mention them in your first message. The cancellation terms are shown before you pay.
