Greenwich Pantry

With small class sizes ensuring personalised tuition and all ingredients provided plus recipes emailed afterwards, Greenwich Pantry operates as a London-based cooking school in Plumstead that welcomes both adults and children from age six upwards.

The school runs an impressive breadth of classes spanning Sourdough, Gluten-Free Baking, Cake Baking, Pastry, and Vegan options. Adult sessions include full-day experiences, four-hour intensives, and structured courses, whilst children can join holiday programmes, Saturday school sessions, and birthday parties. Corporate bookings and date night classes add further variety to the schedule.

The four-hour Sourdough Bread Making Class from £170 teaches participants to create their own starter and master the short fermentation method to perfect crust, crumb, taste and texture. Students leave with freshly baked bread and the confidence to abandon shop-bought loaves permanently. The comprehensive Vegan Experience Day combines morning cooking sessions featuring cashew and vanilla cream plus vegan Parmesan with afternoon baking of chocolate cookies and sticky toffee puddings, all without dairy or eggs.

Their four-week Beginner's Baking Course from £390 builds confidence through classics like Victoria Sponge, vegan lemon drizzle, and salted caramel cupcakes, whilst the Gluten Free Baking Class from £150 demonstrates how to recreate traditional breads and cakes using quality flours and accessible ingredients. The Pastry and Pie session covers both sweet and savoury techniques in a full four-hour hands-on format.

Children's programmes focus on international cuisines, seasonal ingredients, and practical skills like measuring and meal planning, with participants taking home both food and recipes. Greenwich Pantry suits families seeking quality instruction, adults wanting to expand their baking repertoire, and anyone interested in plant-based or gluten-free alternatives.
