This is a fun activity in Canary Wharf, London

Spice up your London staycation and bring a touch of Spanish cuisine to the capital with this flavour-filled cooking class.

Hosted on a beautiful Dutch barge houseboat moored in private marina next to Canary Wharf, this interactive workshop is guided by a friendly local expert, Tere, who'll show you how to whip up a Spanish / Catalan classic using high-quality ingredients and fresh produce. You'll discuss Spanish food, pick up new techniques and watch some handy demonstrations before taking over to try yourself!

It doesn't matter if it's your first time getting creative in the kitchen either, this beginner-friendly class is the perfect chance to broaden your culinary horizons and will help you learn to cook a delicious new dish in a calming environment.

If you would like a drink with your food you can choose from a bottle of good quality Cava or in summer months, a jug of freshly made Sangria (Tere's authentic recipe), tick your choice in add-ons.

Extras: If you are learning Spanish and would like to use the experience as a private Spanish tuition class whilst cooking please check the add on fee which will give you a language lesson along with the cooking! Your host teaches Spanish to privately to students outside of cooking classes.

At the end of your workshop, you'll get the chance to enjoy a sit-down meal as you taste-test all of your hard work. The next time you're looking for indoor activities, you can pull out your pans and relax with the amazing aromas of Spanish food.

If just one person books then the class cannot proceed, please be aware that if there are less than 2 guests, the class will be cancelled or postponed.

NOTE: The teacher has a beautiful, fluffy and super friendly Ragdoll cat, if you are allergic to cats please consider this before booking for yourself or gifting to friends.

The Spanish foodie experience is such a fun and unique activity - we would highly recommend it. Tere is a wonderful host, we were made to feel so welcome from the moment we arrived! During the cooking, Tere gives you lots of information about the food and where it comes from and why she chooses it and she makes sure that you feel really involved in the process. The food is absolutely delicious, so tasty! And the venue is fab, it was so cosy even with the tail end of a storm blowing around outside. The photos and recipes Tere also sent through were a lovely bonus. Thank you so much Tere!

We had a brilliant afternoon with Tere celebrating my father in laws 80th birthday. He has travelled extensively in Spain so it was wonderful to see the interaction with Tere and her knowledge of all the produce she uses. She welcomed us into her quirky home like old friends and cooked us a delicious lunch. We ranged in age from 9 to 80 and all had a fantastic time.

We had a wonderful experience. Tere was very approachable and made us feel relaxed and comfortable. She was very knowledgable about all the ingredients and explained each step of the cooking process. We loved how at home and authentic it felt and it was a very unique and cooking class like no other. All the good that Tere cooked was absolutely delicious and we even got to take the leftovers home! Thank you, Tere for a lovely evening!

A truly lovely experience. I booked this as a surprise for my partner’s birthday, and he absolutely loved it. Tere was incredibly welcoming and warm from the moment we arrived. She gave us a fascinating glimpse into her life on the houseboat, showing us around and sharing personal stories that made the experience feel intimate and special. Her explanations of the recipes and the ingredients she used were clear and engaging. We also had the pleasure of meeting Tippi, her charming cat, who came by to greet us. Overall, a unique and heartwarming experience I’d highly recommend!

From the warmest welcome to the final farewell, Tere looked after us exceptionally! My two daughters and myself could not have had more fun and learnt some extra special cooking tips along the way. The food that Tere cooked for us was packed full of flavour and colour - she also added little treats bought from Spain to ensure absolutely authentic flavours. I could not recommend this cooking experience enough, Tere hosted above and beyond. Thank you Tere!

This experience exceeded all my expectations! I booked this for my girlfriend’s birthday, and it just made the day so special. Tere is the loveliest, and the food is some of the best spanish food Ive tried outside of spain - she brings ingredients back from spain just for you to use! I highly recommend this experience! (Plus the Ragdoll cat is absolutely gorgeous)
