The Wee Kitchen Cookery School

Ailsa is an absolute delight and we got super (and supper) lucky with a great group and our very own hand made great food. Would highly recommend.

The Cullen Skink was to die for! So creamy and warming. Will come back again for another course.

Ailsa was an excellent teacher in a relaxed cooking environment. Fun class full of laughs and great food. Would definitely recommend

My Dad and I did the Traditional Scottish Food class and it was worth every penny. The food was incredible (I’m officially a Cullen Skink convert!), Ailsa and Cat were both so lovely and encouraging and made the experience even more enjoyable. Everyone in the class ended up chatting together and enjoying our food at the table - can’t wait to book our next class!! Thank you Ailsa and Cat!!

The class was very chilled and relaxed. Ailsa was so warm and friendly and explained things really well. You were given the recipe at the end of the class and I can really see myself making the dishes at home.

This cooking class was one of the highlights of our time in Edinburgh. The instructor was warm, knowledgeable, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. We learned how to make traditional Scottish dishes from scratch, including a rich Cullen Skink and perfectly buttery shortbread, while also discovering the stories and traditions behind the recipes. The Scottish cheese tasting was a lovely addition and gave us a deeper appreciation for local produce. The class was hands-on, relaxed, and suitable for all skill levels. I left with new cooking techniques, authentic recipes, and a greater understanding of Scottish food culture. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Edinburgh and looking for a unique local experience.

Amazing experience, fun & chilled environment.

Such a great experience! I had been with a friend and so went solo this time and both times the food was absolutely great! Very beginner friendly and Ailsa was lovely and talked us through everything very well. I’m looking forward to working my way through all of the different classes she offers! I’m also happy that I got to chat with some lovely people during the class.

Fantastic experience cooking delicious recipes. Extremely well organized with Ailsa leading and supported by Niamh. You’re normally paired with someone, but the solo person to be paired with me pulled out and so I was lucky to get full portions, with only me cooking. Left me with sufficient to take home. I would highly recommend Ailsa and her classes.

Awesome food and a great chef!!

Ailsa is a fantastic host and it really shows how much thought she has put into her classes and the overall experience. Class is hands-on, fun and lots of great tips and tricks to learn. Would defo recommend and would love to join another of her classes!

Fantastic hen activity! Amazing food and Alisa is such a great host.

Unbelievable cooking experience so fun. Ailsa, was amazing, she was so nice and helpful. Had the best time

Wonderful experience. Ailsa was absolutely fantastic and this was a perfect experience for a casual business experience.

Ailsa is delightful! She demonstrates each step, gives a little history to the dish, and our food was delicious. I would take another class with Ailsa!
