EVENT POLICIES

Please note all public classes are designed to be 4 groups of 4. Many of our classes also only allow even numbers due to the way our recipes are designed. Parties of less than 4 will join another group to work together to cook and enjoy the night but that’s part of why our events are so much fun – meeting other people! If you would like your own table, please make sure to select 4 tickets at checkout, that will ensure you have a table to yourself.

Our maximum group size for public classes is 8 guests. This means even if you sign up as 5 parties of 2, you would still be considered a large group of 10 which we can’t accommodate in a public class. If you have 9 or more people, please email us at [email protected] to learn more about our amazing private classes. Although we love having groups join us, it isn’t fair to the other guests in attendance.

We allow 1 and 3 ticket purchases Mondays through Wednesdays. All other days of the week, we require even number ticket purchases of 2 or 4 people due to the yield of the recipes being for an even number of 4 people. If you are a party of 3 looking to attend a class on one of those days, you are also always welcome to buy 4 tickets and take any leftovers home.

Please note that any dietary restrictions or allergy accommodations require significant notice and we ask that all guests reach out in advance of buying tickets. We buy ingredients in advance of classes, specifically for how many tickets are purchased, and thus need ample notice (sometimes as much as 4-5 days) to potentially modify a menu.

We cannot accommodate any dietary restrictions or allergies at CHEF COMPETITIONS. If you or a guest in your party have any allergies or dietary restrictions, we advise you to select a different event that will allow for accommodations. Attending a chef competition is at your own risk as our chefs are not able to ensure this is an allergy friendly event.

We look forward to having you in for a class or event!
