As stated in the terms and conditions, all of our sales are final, but you are welcome to reach out if you are no longer able to attend, and we will try to resell the seats on your behalf. If they are sold, you would receive a credit to a future class minus a 10% administrative fee to facilitate this. If not, you are more than welcome to send a friend in your place.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Please note this can only be purchased online, if you would like something physical to give as a gift, you can stop by any of our locations for a postcard sized gift card to write your unique code on.

Hands-On Class FAQs
<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions for a hands-on class?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

For the most part, yes. In general, our classes vary in their flexibility and ability to accommodate dietary needs. In order to accommodate some restrictions, we may require the purchase of a full table of 4 tickets for changes that would impact the entire cooking group, while others can be adjusted for individual needs. Unfortunately, some allergies or dietary restrictions cannot be accommodated for the class you’re interested in booking. Please reach out prior to purchasing and let us know your allergies or restrictions, and we will point you in the right direction.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

What should I wear?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

For hands-on classes, we recommend that our guests dress comfortably and wear closed-toe footwear, as you will be standing and actively preparing your menu for a large portion of the class. Please avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing, as you may be operating near an open flame. We will provide aprons and all other necessary equipment.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Are your classes actually \u201chands-on\u201d?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Yes! At our hands-on classes, guests work together at tables in small groups of up to 4 and are assigned to a fully-loaded prep station (with some ingredients pre-measured). Then, with the aid of our amazing Chef Instructors and staff, each group will prepare and cook the entire menu from start to finish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We do not allocate specific recipes to specific groups, as we want each table to experience the full scope of the menu that they have signed up to cook. At the end of a hands-on class, each group will enjoy their culinary creations as you dine family-style in our beautiful event space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that certain menus may have items that are prepped in advance and\/or demoed by the Chef Instructor in order to ensure a smooth and enjoyable culinary experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where appropriate and as noted on our website, certain classes may be centered around taking the final products home, as opposed to dining family-style at the end of the event (i.e. Pastry Classes\/Cake Decorating, Donut Making, Bread Making, etc.).
<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

How many guests are there in a class?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Our public hands-on classes have a maximum of 16 guests per class (4 guests per table). Each class will be broken up into groups of 2, 3, or 4, depending on the number of guests that have registered.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Can I attend with a group of people?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Yes, we divide guests into cooking groups at tables of 4 people. If you are a group of 5 you are welcome to reach out to us to ensure you work together at one table. The food portions are designed to serve ~4 people, so the amount of food will remain the same whether you book for 4 or 5 guests. The recipes should stretch, so it is generally not an issue. If you are a group of 6 – 8, you will be divided across two tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note, we limit party sizes for our public classes and events to a maximum of 8 guests<\/em><\/strong>. This is to ensure that a large party with more than 8 guests does not join a public class, as this would be unfair to our other guests of smaller group sizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We encourage parties of 9 or more guests to email us at info@hudsontable.com for additional information about our private events which we know you will love! We pride ourselves on bringing groups of people together through food and cooking and we would love to work with you on crafting your ideal culinary experience.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Can I come by myself?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Yes! We open our classes for guests to attend by themselves on Monday through Wednesday evenings, as well as throughout the entire week and weekend for midday classes. 
<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Do we get to keep the recipes for hands-on classes?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Yes, all guests who have registered for the class, will be emailed a digital copy of the class recipes within 24 hours of attending. You are welcome to share these with the other guests in your party.
<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Is there an age restriction for hands-on classes?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

All of our classes are intended for guests 18+<\/strong>. We do have some classes that allow ages 14+ which is indicated on the class description. For the safety and enjoyment of all guests, infants, toddlers, and children are not permitted, as active cooking and plating take place throughout the venue, including areas outside the kitchen. However, we offer a range of after-school and holiday classes, camps, and kids birthday parties which are targeted to our younger chefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’d like to host a private hands-on class, we permit children aged 8+ to join the private class under adult supervision.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Do you offer classes for kids?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Yes! Hudson Table offers a broad range of classes, after-school programs and camps, as well as custom private parties for kids ranging from 4 – 17. For more information, please check out our kids offerings or email info@hudsontable.com<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Do I need cooking experience to participate?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Not at all. These classes are designed for all skill levels. Whether you\u2019re a confident home cook or a total beginner, our chefs and our recipes guide you along the way.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

How are the tables organized?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Guests are divided into tables of 4 upon arrival. If you\u2019re attending with a group or another couple and you did not purchase your seats together, please reach out to info@hudsontable.com<\/a> to let us know ahead of the class so we can note that you are attending together. Otherwise you will be paired with, and work with, other guests as a team, which is a fantastic social experience.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Reach out via our contact form or email info@hudsontable.com<\/a> with the location of interest, your estimated headcount, style of event you would like to book, and our team can assist!

How do I secure a date?<\/strong><\/summary>\n

For standard on-site events, we take a $600 non-refundable and non-transferrable deposit to secure a date, space and time. We do this to protect our business against loss of other potential business, while holding that date exclusively for your event.
