Company of Cooks and Restaurant Associates Venues come together under one brand as we celebrate 30 years of brilliant hospitality.
Two great names. One bold future for venue hospitality.
It's an exciting new chapter for Company of Cooks!
Restaurant Associates Venues and its teams have officially joined Company of Cooks, bringing together two brilliant names in British venue hospitality under one brand.
Together, we now work across more than 50 venues across the UK, combining our experience, creativity and shared passion for brilliant food, drink and hospitality at some of the country's most iconic cultural destinations, heritage sites, visitor attractions and event venues.
30 years of doing things differently
Since opening in London in 1996, Company of Cooks has grown around a simple belief: great hospitality starts with great people. Thirty years on, that hasn't changed.
Our approach is rooted in Craft, Creativity and Community, and a genuine understanding that every venue has its own character, story and audience.
Whether it's a quick coffee before exploring a museum, a memorable meal at a historic landmark or an unforgettable event, we believe every experience should feel handpicked for the place and the people enjoying it.
Bringing together the best of both
By bringing our teams together, we're building on decades of shared experience and expertise.
It's an opportunity to share ideas, develop our people, strengthen our specialist knowledge and continue finding creative ways to deliver brilliant hospitality for our clients and customers.
And while we're growing together under one name, our approach remains the same: getting to know every venue, understanding what makes it special and creating food, drink and experiences that feel right at home.
Looking ahead
As we celebrate our 30th anniversary, we're excited about what this next chapter means for our people, our partners and the places we're lucky enough to work in.
With more expertise to share, more opportunities to collaborate and a shared ambition for the future, there's plenty to look forward to.
One Company of Cooks. And plenty more to come.
Handpick every moment.
