The success, excellence and longevity of our culinary program would not be possible without the enduring support of a generous community.

* GUEST REVIEW *

Outstanding food and value! We go to a number of Chefs School dinners every year. The food never disappoints. The service is excellent, and…. you can’t beat the price. While the kitchen team are students, they are training in the best chef school in the country, under chef instructors who are themselves absolutely top ranked professional chefs. So, invariably, you get meals and wine pairings that would easily cost twice as much or more at a high end restaurant. What is not to love about great quality, helping support a new generation of chefs, and a great price?” – Bill H. | Visited on November 22, 2022

When I decided to be a chef, I made it a goal to pick the best culinary school in the country to build a solid foundation. I chose the Stratford Chefs School, mostly for its reputation for producing talent, for its intense training program, and for the intimate student – teacher ratio. I certainly wouldn’t be where I am in my career without the connections I made and the skills that I learned there.”
Carl Heinrich | Executive Chef and Co-owner, Richmond Station, Toronto | Stratford Chefs School Class of 2005 | Top Chef Canada 2012
The Stratford Chefs School provides the training to create world-class chefs who are comfortable working in any kitchen environment. Its immersive, approachable, interactive curriculum provided me with the tools and confidence that I needed early on in my career to make the transition from the school setting to the workforce. Perhaps most important to me are the lasting friendships that were made, the ongoing support from the SCS community, and exciting collaborations with other alumni.”
Alondra Galvez | Owner/Chef, El Cactus Taco Shop | Stratford Chefs School Class of 2003
At the Chefs School, I was given the opportunity to challenge myself, and expand the limits of my culinary skill and knowledge. SCS gave me the ability to trust in my own skill and allowed me to expand my knowledge. Now I confidently pass that skill and knowledge to my students.”
