Workshop Bookings for group and private workshops
We are delighted that you are considering booking a Henley Chocolates chocolate making workshop. We look forward to welcoming you to our workshop for lots of chocolate fun and learning.
Terms of Booking
Obviously as a food establishment we take food and customer safety really seriously and, as such, we have a couple of rules regarding the health and well being of all workshop participants.
We politely request that no guest attend our workshop if they or a member of their immediate family for which they provide care has suffered symptoms of diarrhoea and vomiting or symptoms of any other contagious illness in the 48 hours preceding the workshop. Please contact us if this applies to you and we will discuss the best option regarding your workshop / workshop space.
We take allergies and intolerances very seriously. We are able to cater for most food allergies and intolerances if we are notified about them at least seven days prior to the workshop taking place. We ask party organisers to request their guests (or the parents of their guests if under 18) to complete a form prior to attending the workshop confirming if they have any allergies, intolerances or medical conditions of which we need to be aware.
We routinely use ingredients containing soy, milk, wheat and nuts within our workshop space. We also use other ingredients containing different allergens on a more occasional basis. Although we take all necessary and thorough precautions, we can not rule out the possibility of trace contamination. Hence please speak to us prior to booking, especially if you are aware of a guest with a highly sensitive condition. We'll be happy to discuss your specific needs to ensure that the workshop is safe for all participants.
Parking is available on site. For workshops taking place during working hours (10-5 Tuesday to Sunday) car parking is available in the main car park at the back of the site signposted from the main entrance off Pettiford Lane. For disabled visitors and outside of office hours parking is available in the yard immediately outside the Chocolate Shed. To access this simply turn left and follow the road around in to the yard on entry.
Please be aware that the building is old with low beams which taller guests (5 foot 11 and above) may find inconvenient and the yard is uneven in places so trip hazards are present. Access to the Chocolate Shed is up a low step (about three inches). Assistance is available for those arriving who require the use of a wheelchair.
Toilet facilities are available including accessible toilets for physically less able visitors to the site.
