COOK Clapham Levels Up!
Posted on 4 September 2017
The COOK shop on Abbeville Road in Clapham opened its doors again last week after a month-long makeover. After serving the community for over a decade, it’s fitting that it has been given such a impressive upgrade.
The Life of Pie

The chefs at the COOK Kitchen had quite a journey mastering our new Pies for One. One of them, Alan Martin, gave us the low down…
A COOK spread in action..
Posted on 23 August 2017
If you want to see a COOK spread in action, here’s a video of our founders, Edward and Dale, and some of the team giving it a thorough test. We made this for Facebook, where the average video view is 2 seconds. This runs for 34 minutes, making the social media equivalent of Wagner’s Ring Cycle. Still, more than 100 people watched it all.

Be Part of the Family:
Only by working together as one team can we achieve our goals. We all have different roles, different abilities and different personalities: by collaborating we can do remarkable things.

New 4-portion Packaging
Posted on 17 July 2017
You may have noticed the 4-portion meals in our freezers are stacked up all higgledy-piggledy at the moment. It’s because we’re fazing out the old packaging and bringing in the new, so please bear with us.
The new packaging means we’ll be able to fit more in and offer you more choice, but that’s all that has changed: the weight, recipe and ingredients are exactly the same.
