I had an amazing experience, putting a knife collection together for my daughter who is a new Line Cook. She was amazing and very helpful. Teresa Hirsh made my experience amazing!! thank you so much !!! read more

My husband & I attended the class that included a menu of: Grilled lemon herb shrimp, smoky grilled eggplant parm, crispy prosciutto & melon salad & roasted cherry buttermilk ice cream. The class was well organized and the chef, kitchen staff and volunteers were helpful and attentive. A very nice way to spend time meeting new people while having fun with your friends, family or solo. Unfortunately for us, the old adage "too many cooks in the kitchen" applies here. When class started we were told there would be plenty of food, but we definitely left hungry & a tad disappointed in what was served. We made a lot of shrimp, yet each person got 3. Our table was curious where they all went. The melon on the salad was not ripe, making it unpleasant to eat. The main entree, eggplant parm, was completely inedible by everyone. Apparently, the eggplant had been salted before the students arrived and then salted again during class. So no one had any main entree. The finale was a scoop of ice cream. This made us feel as though we got very little value considering the cost for the class as we certainly could have enjoyed a meal at a sit down restaurant for less & left full. Don't get me wrong, there is value in expertise and instruction, but not $200 worth. However, at the end of the day, it was a good time and we would like to try another class in the future. read more

Took my wife here on a date night to the food and wine pairing. Amazing experience, will definitely go back again. We also took advantage of the discount :-) read more

I attended my first cooking class at the Cook's Warehouse and absolutely loved it. The facility is wonderful, and was very conducive to hands-on learning. This class was the Neapolitan Pizza Party, and it covered a lot more than I expected. The executive chef, Michelle Pellegri, struck a wonderful balance between education and fun. She stressed the importance of doing what was critical, but also shared many short cuts that made me, as a non-bread and pastry chef, much more at ease. The end product was truly delicious and I look forward to trying it at home. The Cook's Warehouse offers many different classes, and private events, but sign up early as they seem to fill up fast. read more

Great local place. Everything and more than the big franchise stores with a personal touch. No need to drive to Avalon or Ponce. It's all here! read more

Hi - my handsome husband and I were here today (11/6) to replace an old 1/2 sheet pan with the same model (which they had) but were SO fortunate to get some great advice from a really nice lady who suggested another brand that would better suit our needs. How wonderful to get some non-judgmental, non-pushy guidance! We learned a lot and she made a mundane purchase a super fun experience. Many thanks!! read more

When I lived in ATL, the Cook's Warehouse was the place to go for kitchenware and cookware. Having come back here after so many years, I can see that it still is the place to go for cookware and kitchen supplies. They also hold cooking classes here and do cooking demonstrations on special occasions which are incredible and worth the price you are paying. Everything is top notch quality at The Cook's Warehouse, and the knives section is very impressive. If you are a true chef and looking for high quality knives, the Cook's Warehouse is where you need to go. They have expert staff who can help you pick out the particular knives you need for your kitchen and professional use. The name brand cookware and kitchen supplies are worth coming to this store. The Cook's Warehouse is not a cheap place to shop for cookware and kitchen supplies, so if you are looking for something inexpensive, this is not the place for you. However, the experience and expertise of the staff to help you find what you are looking for in your kitchen is worth coming to this store to shop. You will definitely receive excellent customer service and a great product when you come to the Cook's Warehouse. Come on by and shop here for kitchenware or cookware. It is worth every penny!! read more

Disclaimer: This review is for the cooking class only! Update July 2019 After my previous review....I was reached out to by the team and given 2 free vouchers to try another cooking class. I am SO glad I took them up on their offer!! Signed up for the French macaron making class and this experience was as different as night & day. Smaller groups, each of us got to practice all aspects of macaron making. The lead chef Lizzy was patient and explained every step in great detail. The staff was still stellar. Overall: I enjoyed this class so much more! After that experience will definitely try some of their other classes. read more

Update: After my previous experience/review someone from customer service reached out and offered a complimentary do-over. Kudos for the prompt response. This update is delayed since I just signed up for a class (French Macarons 101) and had a blast. The class was on a Sunday afternoon and there were a lot less people. The staff and Chef Lizzie seemed well prepared as we were able to divide ourselves into groups and work efficiently together. I think it all comes down to the number of people registered for the class and if there are any large groups. I learnt a lot about making French Macarons - since it was hands on, we made the shells, the filling and even got to sample all the flavors. A take home pouch with a sample set was a good treat.. I will definitely be back for another class. I highly recommend the French Macaron class to beginners or experienced cooks who haven't had success making them Macarons. ------------------------------------------------ Meh experience. My first cooking class so I was excited to do this for Valentine's Day! The cooking experience is inside The Cook's Warehouse - which is a retail shop with all that you need in the kitchen (and more). Got there about 30 mins before start and got our seats.. the tables were tightly packed (3 tables) but were nicely set up. There were volunteers/staff who were doing the prep work in the kitchen so we just waited/took pictures/walked around the store. At about 6:45pm (15 minutes after official start time) did someone actually say something. Till then it just felt like everyone was scrambling. We were given water and the staff and chef were introduced. The chef walked us through the recipes - printout was on each seat and gave us some direction on how to proceed. Somehow the water they served us was a little muddy (pipe burst), so the staff quickly got us bottled water and gave us wine to compensate for the inconvenience (they actually refilled the wine a couple of times - more than average). When we got into the kitchen, everyone seemed to have forgotten their instructions. We had a "group of 6" who kind of were all over the place. Groups were assigned dishes to prepare and switch through stations, but due to the "group of 6," we were stuck with cake duty and mediocre prep by the "group of 6." All through the experience, people were trying to get more direction, the recipe instructions were good but still required some more direction. The staff was confused and kept running to the chef for everything. 2 hours in, all the food ready. There were a few people cooking steak (kind of disorganized again), but I was "whatever" at that point. The staff served us the food, and refilled our wine again. I have to say the food looked great but my bacon (bacon covered steak) was undercooked. Overall, I had high expectations but I was underwhelmed. I wouldn't do it again. Hopefully in the other classes they provide better direction and navigate groups effectively. The chef was great, and staff super helpful. The recipes were fantastic but the foexperience suffered. BTW our menu was: raw oysters, bacon covered steak with bernaise sauce, asparagus, pimento potatoes and decadent chocolate cake. read more

I love going to this store. They have great kitchen supplies. I go there to have my knives and kitchen scissors sharpened. It's a great convenient and prompt service. You can shop for yourself or for wonderful gifts! read more

Selection of cooking and baking items is vast. I live very close, frequent the store often and usually can't leave without spending at least $50. Ha. The staff is very helpful. They all seem to have experience using the items, and are always willing to answer your questions! For beginner and expert chefs/bakers alike, I would recommend read more

BEWARE: Do NOT buy this as a gift. Bought class 2 months in advance, and just before the class, when too late to get another gift, was notified that they booked a large group for the class and kicked my registration out of the class. No accommodations were made for ruining a Christmas gift except to offer a date for another class that we were unavailable for. BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES. Don't support! read more

I was in the area and decided to walk in ask about some of their upcoming cooking classes. The lady behind the counter looked completely aggravated by my request and then referred me to their online website. The questions that I had were not easily found on the website. I was so pissed off I left because of how rudely she was to me and my friend. What's ironic is that I also wanted to buy a special mixer as my kitchen aid is about thirty years old. I wanted to purchase one of the new mixers they carry - about $750. Guess what- I didn't buy from you because of how I was treated. I purchase the mixer elsewhere. Not only did you lose a cooking class participant, but you lost a sale and future sales. No one is going to be rude to me when I am trying to spend my money with you. The sheer arrogance is really disappointing. So what can you do to improve? Fire the arrogant lady that you have in place to take care of your customers read more

All the employees were helpful and welcoming, even after a long busy day of Christmas shoppers. Everything a cook could want is here, excellent selection of quality products. Thanks to all the staff for providing a 5 star experience. read more

Ahhhhh, I love this place. You can find just about any kitchen gadget in here. From onion goggles to ceramic pots or dishes, they have it all. Me, I choose to go here to smoke life in the kitchen easy! The cutlery section- always well stocked with a variety of tools the make your day smoother. They even have a knife sharpening service! At the Ansley location, you can drop your knives Monday or Wednesday by the close of business and pick them up the next day. Check each store for details or visit cookswarehouse.com What is also outstanding is their cooking classes. Although I have not attended yet, it is on my list for 2017. There are pay based classes/workshops and you get to choose the chef and types or style of cooking for your convenience. I'm targeting the "One Sommelier, six wines (9601) but I am currently on the wait list . So be it pasta, veggies, cheeses, sautés or wines this is the place to go! I mean, what Yelper who likes to comment and dine on the finer places has not a skill in the kitchen?? Come, learn and invite your friends and most of all keep your knives sharpened! read more

Take a cooking class! I took a group of 12 here for simply Vietnamese with Chef Nancy. Our chef was outstanding.

Ever watch... well, ANY show on food network in which the chef used some strange gadget or other. Ever wonder where they get those strange "garlic rollers", "ravioli bed molds" or "julianne peeler thingies"? HERE is where you can find all those special little doo-dads you need for specialized cooking and baking. Don't worry, even if you don't know the name of that "fondant spreader knife thingamjig", the fabulous team of staff is there (and more than happy) to help! As soon as you walk in, somebody will approach you with a smile and a "can I help you find anything specific?" They are knowledgeable of their stock (that includes the wine) and wonderfully helpful when you need something but you just don't know what. I highly recommend, if you get the chance, to take one of their cooking classes. They are not cheap (they run about $45-$80 per class), BUT most of them are hands-on, so YOU get to make the food after the chef instructs. So, not only do you get a full meal (and wine!), but you get to work with some highly-esteemed chefs in the Atlanta area. (Disclaimer: be prepared to devote a whole evening to a class- many go from 6:30-9:30 pm, but there are weekend classes as well.) Larger than it's local counterparts, this particular location can accommodate bigger classes and will give you a little more elbow room. You'll just have to get past the horribly yellow walls. read more

Holy moly! This place is heaven for anyone who likes to spend any amount of time in the kitchen! Like the good, money-conscious shopper I am (...sometimes...) I walked into Cook's Warehouse knowing exactly what I needed and told myself that would be the only thing I would walk out of the store with. An angel food cake pan. I opened the door to the small-ish shop to find my perfect kitchen. Everything I could ever need to cook anything. They had at least 10 different versions of those little saucers that you see TV chefs pulling their "pinch" of salt from. I want those. No, I NEED those. Aisle after aisle of baking pans, knives, cute aprons, cutting boards, pots and pans, etc. Of course, the real kicker is the stuff on the wall- the lemon zester! The melon baller! The silicon baster brush! The shellfish cleaners! I need one of each! Before I got too deep in convincing myself I need these things, a very knowledgeable-looking employee asked me if I needed help finding anything. Oh yeah. The angel food cake pan. She showed me right to where they were and we discussed the different sizes, and what would be most appropriate for my need. I heard other employees around asking if they could help anyone find anything- great customer service! They also have a really amazing teach-in kitchen in the back, where I now really want to take classes. At the employee's recommendation, try to take classes where you get to do stuff and not watch a chef do things! All the employees were so cheery, I couldn't believe it. If I was surrounded by all that awesomeness, I guess I would be happy too. Except I would spend my entire paycheck there. I wonder if employees get discounts...hmmm.... read more

Not only is this store convenient they Always have what I am looking for. Great staff. It is so refreshing to be helped by people who are experienced with their products.

Very helpful staff. They made great suggestions. Well stocked so you can find all items for your cooking and baking needs. The knife selection is over the top! read more

My husband's the cook in the family, so initially I was overwhelmed by all the cool stuff filling the shelves at Cook's Warehouse. I'm not sure if I had the requisite "deer in the headlights" look, but it wasn't long at all before one of the friendly staff members came over to assist me. She showed me where the whisks were hanging, and then pointed out the pepper grinders. When I had some additional questions about which grinder to purchase, she called over Jessica, who provided her expertise and helped me decide to splurge on the Peugeot. Lifetime warranty! (We use a lot of fresh ground pepper in our home.) Cook's Warehouse is conveniently located in Ansley Mall near the Publix, with plenty of free parking. Quality goods cost money, but you'll also find many reasonably priced items along with a clearance shelf for bargain buys. read more

The staff are being safe by wearing masks. The store is short on staff members which makes it hard to ask questions and find things. There seems to be no real management if you run into an issue with purchase. Possibly due to COVID-19. read more

The vibe and the customer service here is off!!! The products are great!!! The only reason I came back was to return an item... I will not be back! read more

The Cook's Warehouse falls into that current middle ground of small business retail - they have great, unique stuff that I can always find cheaper online. I want to support them, but nothing they have is unique enough that I can't find it elsewhere. I love the store, I love everything about it. It's a wealth of new gadgets and new things to cook with. This review is not about the products in the store. It is expressly about the classes offered by the store. The products are awesome. I've been holding off on this review as I've wanted to give my thoughts some time to percolate. The base recommendation - don't take any of their classes that aren't "hands on". If it's a class that you have to sit and watch? Not worth the time or money. I signed up for the Big Green Egg course they offered because it promised to "walk you through the basics as you learn to properly use and maintain your Egg". The class description also mentions recipes. Unfortunately I'd guess that the class ended up being about 33% Egg tutorial and 66% how to prepare the dishes that they were cooking. The latter I can glean from food network TV shows. I don't need to spend 20 minutes learning how to spatchcock a chicken in a class that's supposed to be green egg centered. It ended up being more about grilling in general. So - beyond the inaccurate class description is the general environment set aside for the hands off classes. 25 grown adults crammed into tiny chairs around two tables. It was not comfortable and not conducive to learning. read more

"Who died and made you Julia Child? You haven't touched a spatula in ten years." -- Beverly Hills, 90210: Season 2, Episode 18 I am not allowed in here without supervision...do you hear me? Now, if you want to find me a gift, odds are this is the place to shop. But be prepared to spend (and probably check out my kitchen first to find out what I need). This place is my Eden, my Mecca, my Heaven if such a place exists. My toy store - a place to get lost and play for hours. The staff is friendly and if you know what you want or need - they will take you right to it and help you pick between models. If you don't know what you need, the crack staff can help you decide and won't steer you towards something pricier just because it's more money. Trust me. I'm here every week to pick up my Garnish & Gather meals (shameless plug), and I walk and and out and know not to let my eyes stray or else I will spend. I work hard to do my research before walking in the door, but occasionally I buy something that is on my wish list (I really shouldn't do that), but usually they are shiny and call my name. They have fabulous classes as well - I've only done a couple and I am determined to do more next year! My favorite was Chef Kevin Gillespie's demo for his new cookbook Pure Pork Awesomeness... nothing but awesome. There is a reason I am the Duchess - they get a piece of me every paycheck. read more

I threw a corporate event at Cooks Warehouse last night. The experience was outstanding. The staff helped us create an "Iron Chef" competition. This review is aimed at someone considering something similar. I rented out the whole kitchen and brought 12 people. This wasn't one of their normal group class offerings. It was a private event. First, we had a gluten allergy in the group. This really prohibits the food selection, but, the chef choose a perfect meal and I don't think anyone noticed. The head chef was amazing. She played the role of a great host: engaging, witty, charismatic... with food network caliber culinary skills! The rest of the staff (volunteers) were also top notch and enhanced the experience. The food we created and ate was spectacular, but, this isn't the real story. They sold an experience. This was a team-building exercise where we worked together on a common task. They helped facilitate this goal. Everyone had a great time and learned a lot about their coworkers. Everyone's feedback was positive. I have only one downside: the price. I payed roughly $110 a person. This was at the high-end... we took advantage of most of their offerings. The staff will work with you. I could have cut the appetizers and other extras... maybe brought the price down to $80 or $90 a person. I had a 10 person minimum. Not cheap. As a corporate team-building exercise, this is hard to beat. It makes bonding with a group of people with different lifestyles fun. I will most likely throw another event here. read more

I wish I could afford to shop here without a 50%-off Scoutmob code, because the service and the merchandise are totally worth the prices. I was assisted by an expert whose name I failed to notice (shame on me) as I browsed for half an hour. Ultimately, I settled on a superlative sink-spanning colander, not vulnerable to the crud accumulation of its Swedish cousin from IKEA, a loaf pan that looks the right size for sandwich-baggie-sized sandwiches, and two stylish and slender 1-quart glass pitchers perfect for making iced tea with my IngenuiTEA. (And they're squarish, so two different teas can sit in the refrigerator door without taking up too much space.) Even after throwing in four Zyliss fridge magnet-clips, my total after tax and discount was under $30. Gotta love that discount code, especially when I shudder thinking of the original price. The Midtown location is in Ansley Mall, so if you're a queer foodie, this is probably pick-up central. And if you're not queer... well, it never hurts to window-shop! Note on accessibility: there's a ramp from the parking lot that snakes up to the level of the store. It's not easy to see if you're directly in front of the store. read more

Cooks Warehouse is for me what porn stores are for most men. It's small and crowded but completely filled to ceiling with the most awesome cooking equipment I covet. Oh, and the selection of Le Creuset - drool worthy. Plus, they almost always have something I want in my color (red, for those looking for gift ideas ; ). I love their stock of Wusthof, as well. This is my go-to place for the odd kitchen tool. I think it's way more helpful than Williams Sonoma (maybe even more so than Sur La Table, if only because it's closer to me). I've found pastry bags, the large tip I needed for cream puffs (thanks to the excellently helpful staff), honing steels, prep bowls of every size, a french press and so many other awesome odd kitchen things you can't find just anywhere (ok, the list above you can find most places but you can't beat this place for quality of selection). I wold love to take a cooking class here if I could ever fit it into my schedule. As it is, I'll be content to squeeze in among the racks and shelves and dream of all the wonderful concoctions Cooks Warehouse will help me create. read more

Thought for sure I'd already reviewed this place. Have been twice: once for a gluten free event at the old location and the second time at the new location. They have everything; kind of the Ace Hardware of cooking stuff. María wanted a new stand mixer since Maggie (one of the younger girls) whacked the one she used to have. The Boy did the research (something of interest to him as the one she wanted had lots of attachments and mechanical aspects and he gets to take apart the old one) and fed me the name (not rank) and serial number. Toddling over to TCW, I handed the info to the guy at the front desk. At first, there was a quizzical look, then the 'eureka' moment then the search and securing of the right box - we got the ice cream making attachment as well. Happy wife, happy kiddies, lighter wallet. Why not 5 stars? I went while they were still unpacking so it was kind of a wreck, organization-wise. I'm sure they'll get it all figured out by the next time I go. read more

had terrific service here yesterday in looking for help with a gnocchi paddle and a pasta attachment for my KitchenAid. this place is super convenient for those quick stop-ins for last-minute items. definitely on the pricey side comparatively, but still glad they're here. read more

Need a really obscure or hard to find kitchen gadget? The odds are good that The Cook's Warehouse has three different versions of it. Moreover, they'll be able to tell you how to use it and whether or not you really need it. The knife selection here is pretty awesome, and the staff can give you a walk-through of all the options and styles to choose from. Getting to test the weight and feel of a slew of knives in quick succession really helps you determine what you're going to be comfortable with. I've only taken once cooking class here, but the single experience I had was good and I would recommend it. The bonus: you get ten per cent off regular priced items you purchase from the store during or after your class. read more

I really don't know where to begin. I've already started this review over three times. There are so many wonderful things about Cook's Warehouse. Not only do they carry everything a cook needs, and doesn't even know they need (like baking liners for Panettone!), but this location is the flagship store and has the largest kitchen for classes and chef demonstrations. The staff is top notch and the chefs that teach classes are incredible. It's a credit to Mary Moore that she is able to recognize local talents while also being able to draw big name celebrity chefs. Classes range from your basic-101-don't-cut-yourself-or-set-the-kitchen-on-fire to classes that focus on a certain region, cuisine or even local restaurant! They have a chef's assistant program where you can volunteer to assist classes and attend them for free while building up credits to take other free classes. And I have acquired and incredible amount of knowledge from just being around all these talented people. The only downside to this location really is that they are not partnered with Sherlock's Wine Merchants so you still have to go to another location to pick up the wine you need for the dinner you were making that made you realize you were missing the citrus zester (or insert other cooking tool here( that you need to make the meal perfect. But, Ansley Wine Merchants is right around the corner so it's not so bad after all. read more

This past Friday, Ray and I attended the Grand Opening of Cook's Warehouse new location at Ansley Mall! Ironic that it was a cafeteria and now it's a cooks delight! If you can think of the gadget, they've got it! From spreaders to knives, to aprons and even kitchen design, the store has got great kitchen stuff! As a Condo dweller, I've learned to minimize so I buckled my wallet into my pants pocket...there were so many temptations! But the space is great, and I saw lots of great housewarming gifts for my clients! The Grand Opening was also a fund raiser for a great cause, For The Kid In All Of Us! The had all sorts of great items that were raffled off! Of course, I didn't win, but hey...it's all for the cause! Check out Cook's Warehouse and their new location at Ansley Mall! You'll be sure to find something you have to have for your kitchen! read more

This place is pretty cool and definitely packed with all the goodies a cook could want....as for me, I'm still more of an amateur. If you check it out, they also offer lots of cool classes (sometimes with some famous local and/or Food Network chefs!) and private classes as well. I took their Knife Skills 101 class. The assistants who help are super nice. The Chef was definitely an entertaining teacher, I just...have major doubts. Why? Two reasons: (1) The tasting afterwards, which was stir-fry, was not good. (2) While she was teaching, she made some ridiculous claims that some people are going to go through their lives thinking are true. All in all, I don't really feel like it was worth the 65 bucks, but I did learn a few things. But...I'll be taking it with a grain of salt. read more

Two weeks ago I would have given five stars, as my only class ever taken at Cook's Warehouse was a few years ago at the old Decatur location and I thought it was the most fun experience and the recipes given to us were top-notch. The brownie recipe in particular was outstanding, and the professional baker who taught us owned her own bakery in Roswell was great - I felt like we'd been given a gift with her bestowing her brownie recipe upon us. It's that good. I've kept the print-out of that recipe safe and sound and made those brownies for friends and family, always lauding the baker who shared it with me. Again, it's that good. Then I made them for some friends last week and I gave one to my Mom. I told her the recipe, how it required a little extra work but it's so worth it. She went home and Googled the ingredients and found the recipe online... It is Nigella Lawson's recipe. Here's why I'm now reviewing and giving two stars: I have no clue if the people who organize the cooking and baking classes care if their instructors plagiarize other chef's recipes. They likely take the instructor at their word, or they probably don't care at all. But I care. Because when I spend $70 or $100 for a class my expectation is that I'm not getting something I can't just get on YouTube or FoodNetwork.com for free. And passing off someone's copywrited material as your own is so dishonest and really awful behavior. I just discovered this now and yes, the Decatur location is closed and time has passed but it's still important to make others aware that this is something that likely still takes place. The store itself is great, you will be able to get every cooking utensil you've ever wanted there, and even things you didn't know you needed. But double check on whether you're getting something through a class that you can't just get online for free. read more
