“I crave and relish not only Laura Pope’s cooking, but her creativity and all-round positive energy too.

Laura has cooked for our travelling caravan of family and friends in Cornwall, London and the countryside over the years, and is everyone’s absolute favourite.

Can’t recommend her enough, though hate sharing.” 

“We all adore Laura and her brilliant cooking, every meal relished and savoured.

Whilst we wish her luck in her new ventures, we know that her special stress-free combination of talent, creativity and kindness will bring her continued success.

Laura’s modern healthy approach to cooking and entertaining is both inspiring and satisfying, and we have learnt as we feasted.” 

“Words can’t stress how talented Laura Pope is. But her food can.

Laura is a pleasure to work with and the utmost professional. She takes detail seriously and will go to the limit to please. That’s why we keep coming back for more!”

“Finally we have found a chef that intelligently participates in menu planning, is meticulous in her approach and delivers a feast. Happy client, very happy guests.

Thank you Laura.” 

“Laura cooked for us in Cornwall. She offers an irresistible combination of modern food and traditional classics, all cooked with delicacy and care using the finest local ingredients.

Her passion for food is evident in abundance and she is a charming and courteous hostess.

It was an absolute pleasure to get to know her and to eat her fabulous food.”

“I came to Laura’s class looking for inspiration and I left with lots of ideas, as well as the knowledge and confidence to execute them myself. In fact, I recreated the citrus salmon with all the side dishes and apricot cake for dessert for a lunch party - and my guests loved it!

I’ll definitely be returning for more.”

“What a treat to watch a talented chef cook a delicious meal while learning many tricks of the trade - and to then enjoy the food in Laura’s gorgeous home. I feel inspired and confident to recreate the dishes for family and friends. Laura is an excellent teacher: witty and knowledgeable, she made the whole experience lots of fun. Thoroughly recommended.”

“Laura is such a lovely warm person, you feel so relaxed when you meet her. On arriving we had coffee and croissants and each of us were given our itinerary for the morning, with step by step instructions of each course.

I learnt so much from Laura of the correct way to prep and prepare dishes, such a relaxing atmosphere Laura did all the hard work , we just sat back and asked questions. Couldn't wait to sit down for lunch and eat all the delicious food.

Thank you so much Laura,  hoping to be able to attend another class later in the year.”

“My partner bought me this cooking demonstration as a gift and I couldn’t be more grateful!

Laura was such a great host, making us all feel so welcome as soon as we arrived. We were all engrossed as Laura was cooking away, answering all our questions.

The food was unbelievable, even the dishes I wasn’t sure I would really like, I think they were actually my favourite! I definitely have learnt a thing or two and will be making them on repeat! I could not recommend Laura enough and will 100% be back for more!

Thank you again Laura, it was a pleasure to meet you!”

“Cooking with Laura has been an absolute joy. From the very first lesson I felt inspired, uplifted and full of fresh ideas. She has a wonderful way of making everything feel enjoyable and accessible, while sharing such a depth of knowledge that I come away each time having learned so much.

I truly feel I’m growing every session, discovering a whole new world of flavours and skills, and realising just how enjoyable cooking can be. Each class leaves me excited to cook again, to share dishes with friends, and to look forward to what’s next.

Booking this series of private lessons was the best decision I could have made -simply brilliant!:
