Begin by selecting the number of adult tickets. You can then add the participating children at $29 each during the booking process.
Every attending adult and child needs to be included in the reservation. If the booking system does not allow you to add the correct number of children, please contact Roving Larder and we will arrange it for you.
Yes. The Big Dad Brunch is the more family-focused of the two experiences. Children cook alongside their enrolled grown-ups and must remain under their supervision throughout the event.
Your experience includes welcome refreshments and drinks to accompany the brunch. Adults can enjoy their morning while the children get involved in creating something special for Dad.
Bookings are confirmed once payment has been received and are subject to Roving Larder’s booking terms and conditions.
If something changes, please contact us as early as possible so we can explain the available options.

Perfect. No previous cooking experience is required.
Your chef will guide you through every stage, and nobody is put on the spot. The emphasis is on cooking together, learning a few useful techniques and having a genuinely enjoyable time.
Both experiences are hands-on. You will prepare the dishes together with guidance and demonstrations from your chef.
Once the cooking is finished, everyone sits down to enjoy the meal they have created.
All ingredients, equipment, aprons and recipes are provided. Please wear comfortable, closed shoes for safety.
We recommend arriving 15 minutes before the scheduled starting time so we can welcome you and begin on time.
Please provide all allergies, intolerances and dietary requirements when booking.
We will always do our best to accommodate guests, but some parts of the menus—particularly fresh pasta and dishes prepared in a shared kitchen—may not be suitable for every dietary requirement. If your requirements are complex or allergy-related, please contact us before booking.
