I write this as I cannot see a way of commenting on the appalling behaviour of the Winedrops brand. I thought the wine trade had grown up a bit in their attempts to trap people into long term finan... See more

I used to use banquist for a fancy meal to cook at home and they were wonderful. We were given a voucher as a gift for Banquist and unfortunately they seem to have stopped the meals and only had wine... See more

Fabulous

Fabulous, I highly recommend . I did the Indian course with Atul Kochar. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and looked forward to my box of goodies arriving and I learnt lots of useful tips and techniques. I have no hesitation in recommending to others. I have since researched more of Atul's recipes and I have tried some more. The reason I only gave 4 stars was, that although the ingredients were good quality on the second week an item was missing and on the fourth week 2 items were missing. So this was a bit disappointing

Great kids course, new skills & great meals !

Kids course!
We bought for our 10 year old daughter, she's already a great baker but wanted her to expand her skill's. What a great course, really well planned out, and the skills she has obtained never mind some great additions to our family meals are amazing. Great experience, and great food!

Brilliant course for kids

Brilliant course for kids - challenging enough to feel like my 11 year old learnt something and felt she’d achieved something. The delivery and ingredients were all perfect, very generous quantities. Thank you for a great month!

10/10 Banquist experience.

Absolutely loved my Banquist experience. The ingredients were top quality, nicely packaged, and the video was informative and easy to follow. I loved learning new cooking skills and cooking along with a famous chef! The end result was delicious - I will absolutely be cooking my recipe again.

My 12yo really enjoyed making these and my husband and I really enjoyed eating them. They are tricky and long. So, make sure to read the recipe ahead of time, so you don't wind up eating dinner at 8:30. Some of the younger kids (and even the older) will need a little help. But seriously, the food was delish. (She and a friend are making the chicken Katsu curry right now as I type this).

Home cooking gets aspirational

For her 15th birthday I gave my daughter Banquist’s quartet of meals - tacos, duck pancakes, pizza and chicken katsu. To be honest, I thought we’d be eating another underwhelming version of takeaway - but I could not have been more wrong. The ingredients were top quality, the videos clear and engaging and the end results totally delicious, full of flavour. My daughter loved making each dish and required no help (though a video on clearing up might be a useful addition….). Each delivery arrived promptly, well-packed and with written recipes beautifully designed. Another quartet please!

Super Cooking Fun with my Wife

We have now completed four Banquist cooking experiences. The most recent was the exceptional Tomahawk, but all have been truly superb. Scallops with Jerusalem artichoke high on the list which we have since cooked for guests.
Not only great food but a super fun time doing something creative together.
Can’t recommend Banquist enough…
Absolute value for money

Kid's Course

As many students going to Uni this September do not know how to boil an egg (except in a microwave) I decided to spend some time with my 18 year old granddaughter who is off to Edinburgh next week.

Although advertised as a course for 6 to 16 year olds we had an absolutely fabulous time working our way through the lessons.

Despite having started to cook at Uni when the first Cordon Blu Cooking Magazine was published (circa 1968) I thoroughly enjoyed the lessons and both my granddaughter and I produced some dishes which her Mum and Dad - and even my wife - eat and enjoyed.

Thank you Banquist - fabulous.

PS: We also like the more advanced meals you prepare for us but this is all about the Kid's Course.

Exceptional service and thoroughly pleased

Exceptional service and thoroughly recommend their course to improve your culinary skills. We did the summer course for our son with MasterChef Paul Foster and the ingredients and the explanation all clear. He loved and enjoyed cooking. Ingredients delivered very well packed and fresh. Efficient and prompt communication from Jonny was helpful indeed.

Good food and good fun

My first Banquist meal box was by Chef Alex Bond which was great. I’ve also done the Theo Randall Pasta course which was thoroughly enjoyable and I learned loads, making pasta and the sauces. Even though the course was recorded we had a WhatsApp group where there was great camaraderie among the group, sharing ideas, where we could source ingredients in future, with Jonny answering our questions and getting feedback from Theo. We all waited in anticipation for our deliveries each week. Dealing with Banquist was great, Jonny was very accommodating and flexible around delivery times, nice to deal with a small company where customers matter. I am not sure how many were on the course, but it felt nice and personal. I’ve booked for the Atul and Phil Howard course. It is slightly addictive!

Fantastic dinner box

We have bought 2 adult meals and our children have just finished the kids 4 week course. These are really good quality products and you will not be disappointed. The last meal we cooks lasted 2 days there was so much food so if you think its expensive think again its fun and good to spend time in the kitchen together. Last one was even better with the kids cooking :)

Banquist - exceptional quality and service

I have done several individual Banquist experiences and have now completed the Theo Randall pasta course. 5 stars for all. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The quality of ingredients is exceptional, the contact and service from Jonny, and the team, exemplary and the courses themselves well delivered, interesting and educational.
If the food is not good, I only have myself to blame 🤪
Can’t wait to do the next 2 courses.
