🌟Wellbeing Trip - Dumfries House🌟

Our Steps to Hospitality class and Level 5 Food & Beverage students, alongside their lecturers, had an amazing day out at Dumfries House last Friday!

💪🏻From testing our skills in archery to taking part in a fun-filled scavenger hunt, it was a day full of teamwork, laughter, and new experiences.

A huge thank you to Scott Davidson, who guided us through our archery session, from the basics right through to expert tips to help us really improve our aim 🎯

For some of our students, this marked their last day with us, and we couldn’t be prouder of everything they’ve achieved. We wish you all the very best for the future.
Remember, don’t ever be a stranger! 💙

🌟Salt & Barrel – That’s a wrap🌟

Last week marked our final service before we break for the summer and what a fantastic, busy week it was to end on!

👏We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported Salt & Barrel this year. Your continued visits, kind feedback and enthusiasm have meant so much to our team and students.

It’s hard to believe the year has already come to an end. Over the past year, we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming many local rural groups for Afternoon Teas, some of which included masterclasses, demonstrations, and even bingo and quiz events – all of which have been a huge success🧁

We’ve also enjoyed hosting a variety of themed event nights, including our Italian, Caribbean and Scottish evenings, as well as a number of private functions such as birthday celebrations and gatherings and let’s not forget Christmas! Thank you to everyone who chose to celebrate with us.

☕️This year also marked the first full year of our coffee cart, which has been incredibly popular, serving up great coffee alongside a fantastic selection of freshly made bakery products.

Our students have also represented us brilliantly in competitions, achieving great success in events such as Scottish Chefs with Lomond Foods, TUCO, and Nestlé Toque d’Or – we couldn’t be prouder of their hard work and achievements 🎉

To all of our students moving on, we wish you the very best of luck in your next courses and future careers – we’re so proud of everything you’ve achieved ❤️

📆To those returning next year, we can’t wait to welcome you back in August for another great year.

Have a wonderful summer, and we’ll see you soon! ☀️

🌟Salt & Barrel - The last yeehaw🌟

Last Thursday we went full country style, from blue jeans and cowboy hats to a soundtrack of country favourites 🎶

Our talented Level 6 Advanced Professional Cookery students delivered some amazing country themed dishes while our Level 5 Food & Beverage students, supported by some of our Steps to Hospitality students, kept everything running smoothly front of house.

We had cocktails flowing such as our smoked old fashioned and cowgirl margarita and ended our evening with some country line dancing 🤠

👏A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and got involved, your energy and support make these events truly special.

📸- Thanks to our wonderful Patience for capturing these fab pictures/videos for us!

We now have 2 weeks left of service so get booked in before we close for the summer☀️
