Top Northern Ireland Classes & Workshops

Welcome to a relaxed, home-style cooking school tucked away in the countryside near the village of Bellaghy in Mid Ulster. Join Bronagh in her cosy kitchen and experience hands-on learning with fresh, local ingredients. As you cook, you’ll explore Irish food traditions, from baking soda, wheaten, and potato breads to creating dishes rooted in local culture, using her family recipes. There are also foraging experiences, where we head outdoors to gather seasonal wild ingredients to turn into delicious dishes, drinks, jams, sauces or desserts. Afternoon tea classes are available, where participants make their own scones, breads, soups, mini cakes, and treats. At the end you can sit down together to enjoy a beautifully set afternoon tea with your creations. These classes are about building confidence, removing the intimidation from cooking, and making food that feels like home. Come cook, forage, bake, and share in the joy of food and tradition with us.

Rather than just sampling cocktails on a night out, this special sensory experience takes your cocktail tasting skills to a new level. Take part in a series of interactive audio and visual experiments to help you discover why you like certain flavors and what kind of taster you are. Best of all, there’s no need to pay extra for your drinks, as four cocktails are included.

Ethical considerations take center stage as we delve into responsible foraging practices. Learn to harvest judiciously, leaving ample resources for wildlife and future foragers. Navigate the delicate balance of avoiding endangered or rare species, while also uncovering the cultural and historical significance of wild edibles and their role in fostering sustainable food systems.
