Excellent cooking expierence! We attended as part of a work event. The food was outstanding and the Chefs were incredibly friendly and helpful. Would absolutely go again!

Chef Keith was so great! We had such a great time in our private couples cooking class. We were gifted a gift certificate for a group class, but we were able to upgrade it to the private class. Would definitely recommend this for couples, families, really any type of group! I loved Keith’s approach to recipes / cookies; he makes it seem so much less daunting and more simple and enjoyable. We didn’t just learn how to make this particular appetizer/meal/dessert; we also learned how to think about combining different elements to switch up our weekly meals.

I can’t say enough about Amanda and the crew. Our son’s 7th birthday party was tonight making pizza and cupcakes. So well done! Thank you for your magic- getting (12) 1st graders cooking and giggling

We have taken several classes here. The classes are well run and very fun. However, read the cancelation policy carefully. No refunds. We were hoping for at least a discount on a re-booking but nope. Just don't get sick and enjoy the class.

What a fabulous place for everyone and anyone to embrace and enjoy the art of cooking! Kristen has created a truly wonderful environment and culinary program that is both educational and delicious! From youth cooking classes to private date night cooking experiences and every type of program in between there is something for all at the Culinary Playground. I tried the Mediterranean menu- Tuscan white bean soup, egg cups and roasted salmon. I learned new knife skills and sauté tips. The food was so yummy. BYOB and the wine pairing I did went perfectly. Can’t wait to come back for a group girls night and get the kids to try a class. Thank you!!

My daughter and I did the gingerbread house decorating, it was such a nice set up and we had everything we needed- they also provided hot cocoa and cookies for us to enjoy as we created our masterpiece. I love that this is local and a place where I can take my kids to do a fun hands on activity together.

Had an amazing night out here for a class and dinner. I would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you for a great experience.

What a great business and a great team. My son has been going here for over a year and always has a positive experience - and brings home delicious food!

The Culinary Playground hosted a very successful corporate team building event for us. We booked the event remotely and site unseen. Securing the venue and paying online went smoothly with good communication up front. On the day of the event we were met by Kristen who got us all briefed on the event and was OK with us bringing our own wine.The one thing we really appreciated about Kristen was her encouragement for us to stray from the recipes and experiment. Our food turned out delicious and we all had a blast cooking.

This place was AWESOME! Went for a work team building activity and I was so impressed. The staff was so friendly and helpful and made everything so easy to learn. I would definitely recommend this place. Thank you for such a great experience.
I did a private cooking class with my 3 daughters today and it was wonderful. The class and Kristen, the teacher, far exceeded our expectations. It was fun, we learned techniques for chopping and moved so seamlessly well through the menu we created in the 2 hour class. Kristen was so prepared for us. What a truly enjoyable culinary experience. Thank you!

Amazing experience! We surprised my mom with a private cooking class to celebrate her 70th birthday. Kristen and her staff were fantastic. I had many questions prior to the event which were answered promptly. Would definitely recommend private cooking classes/events with The Culinary Playground.

Amazing experience here for one of their date night cooking classes. Bryan, the instructor, is very obviously passionate about cooking and he was a great teacher. The class felt comfortable and fun. We will be back soon!

This place seemed like a great idea for a date night. I booked a night in November. Shortly before the class, they canceled it and offered another date. Then that date wasn't available either. So I rebooked for today. They texted a confirmation that I was scheduled. However, when I reached out to confirm the details for tonight, they have no record of me and my husband having a spot for this evening. No apologies just a whoopsie from them. Does anyone have an alternative for someone scrambling for last minute plans?
