Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. We have a voucher for here that we have been unable to redeem. The owner Mel ( Merrill William Evans ) is ignoring emails asking for a refund. He promised that dates would be available on the website to book but these never materialised. A check on companies house now reveals that the business is likely being shut down and he is pursuing another venture. An awful shame and very disappointing behaviour from this person.
Edit 04/26 - 6 months on and Forage Kitchen still owe me �80 for a course that they cancelled - they have refused to honour my vouchers or pay me back. Mel's response below is a work of fiction.

In an email several days later, Mel Evans offered us a voucher to use on another course. We accepted this offer in August 2025 and didn't receive the voucher. We chased this up via email in September 2025, after which Mel offer... read more
I've been to forage four times now over the past few years. The first time was an exceptional experience, however it has slowly declined after each visit. Some of the food was literally inedible. Such a shame as the whole aspect of how they create their food is truly fascinating.
Valentines dinner last night was superb. The highlight for me was a cheese course consisting of an incredibly moist carrot cake topped with Baron Bigod cheese and candied walnuts. It was up there as one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten!
