Recent reviews of Barista Basics Workshop

5/5 from Sue Piccoli, attended Oct 2026: The class was great, very comprehensive, well organised with a good mixture of taking and doing!! I didn't realise how much making a good cup of coffee entailed!
5/5 from Sofie Grin, attended Oct 2026: I really enjoyed the course. You can learn so much, including a lot about coffee beans, which I found really interesting. The instructor was very friendly and had such a positive attitude. Five hours felt a little long at first, but I think it was actually better this way because we had more time to practise and learn by doing. I even managed to make a heart for the first time! All in all, it was an amazing course, and I would definitely recommend it to others!
5/5 from Mark Smallwood, attended Oct 2026: Instructor’s knowledge and experience were obvious, and her explanations were clear. Well structured and well run.

5/5 from Charlotte, attended Jul 2026: The class was amazing and the teacher was very helpful.
4/5 from Laia Martinez Parra, attended Jun 2026: Equipment and facilities were really good, the instructor Carven Ho was excellent. The only thing I would complain about is not having plant based milk to practice and have your coffees
5/5 from Roslyn Bryant, attended May 2026: Carven was excellent, took her time explaining how the machines work, locating recipes for different brands of coffee. Very patient with us all and gave her time to all of us.

4/5 from Isaac Wood, attended Oct 2025: Hannah was very good and knew a lot about coffee and the industry. Suggest more practice with real milk and making complete coffees (coffee and milk tougher). This part felt rushed at the end

5/5 from Garrett Goodenough, attended Jan 2025: Really enjoyed the course and Maureen was so impressive with her knowledge but also not getting stuck in the weeds of “information overload” she knew the right amount of information and really managed the skills to help new beginners excellently. Thanks Maureen enjoyed it. Garrett
5/5 from Jessie Yap, attended Jan 2025: Thank you Carven for showing us step by step on Barista coffee from commercial to home coffee making.

5/5 from Kirsty Peebles, attended Oct 2024: Such a great anniversary present, my partner & I had so much fun. Hannah was incredibly knowledgeable & passionate about what she was doing which made all the difference. Note that this is at Barista HQ (upstairs at the back of Bespoke. Which I noticed wasn’t really written anywhere prior to the class. We covered more than anticipated in the course too! Great value for money
5/5 from Marcia Pattison, attended Oct 2024: Very explanatory, thorough and informative. Easy to understand and very hands on. Great amount of people in the class, not too may. Set up was good.
5/5 from Azura Nesa, attended Oct 2024: Carven (excuse the spelling) was a wonderful teacher, very insightful and helpful. It was obvious she had a lot of knowledge of coffee and effectively communicated this to the group, whilst also keeping the class light and fun. I learnt a lot and am now confident in my abilities of using a coffee grinder and machine. I thoroughly enjoyed using the coffee machine and my teacher gave us plenty of time to practise! I believe the class was wonderful value for money, considering the length and amount of coffees I was able to make and drink!
4/5 from Cam Samuels, attended Oct 2024: Yes. We need more practice on the day. Than you for the opportunity to learn from such an experienced teacher.
3/5 from Matt Devenish, attended Oct 2024: Some hands on experience, nice teacher. However, not a natural teacher, she did not refer to booklet and gave confusing commands, wh8ch made it difficult to follow. No visual guide offered on how to make the different coffees.

5/5 from Kyle Dessent, attended Sep 2024: I took the class purely out of interest, wanted to learn more about coffee and how can I improve my own brew at home. The class was informative, easy to follow, plenty of practical application with the equipment. Our teacher was fantastic, so knowledgeable. Only 10 students which was a good number.
5/5 from Emma Jones, attended Sep 2024: Awesome class, I've learnt how to use a coffee machine, taste espresso shots and what can go wrong. I felt more confident picking a coffee machine for myself. What surprised me the most is learning how important tamping is making a puck!
4/5 from Toni Speer, attended Aug 2024: Not what I was expecting. Learned a lot! I never realised that making a cup of coffee could be so complicated. Trainer was very knowledgeable and helpful.
5/5 from Tshewang Dema, attended Jun 2024: The class was awesome, I was a beginner and now I learned lots about coffee both practical and theory. The class was interactive and interesting.
