    A great pasta-filled Christmas party
    We booked a private pasta making group session (Cook your Creations) as our company's Christmas Party and it was fantastic. Right from the initial booking, Federico couldn't have been more helpful. On arrival, everything was all set up waiting for us and we were instantly put at ease. Federico was an excellent teacher, giving us just the right balance of theory and practical knowledge. We had such a laugh making and then cooking our pasta, while the sauces that had been made were exceptional! The Pasta Laboratory was the perfect location for our company party and Federico was a great host. We will certainly be returning again in the future.

    Delicious pasta, amazing atmosphere, engaging instructor!
    We arrived for the morning course and were warmly greeted by the instructor. During the actual course he went into great detail about the theory of how to make good pasta, ensuring that we could then go on and repeat it for ourselves at home! All of this would be repeated in an email, showing that the instructor truly cared about us having a good experience even after we left. Everyone in the course ended up making a very generous amount of fresh pasta, which we then had cooked for us with a choice of simple but delicious sauce! Overall, it was a brilliant experience for the family, and we'll be eating a lot more pasta in the near future!

    Fun and informative pasta making
    My friend and I had a private pasta making lesson with Federico and it was great fun and we learnt a lot in a great cooking space. He talked us through all the stages ensuring we knew what helps make the pasta successful and ensuring we had 3 different types to taste / take home, providing us with some tasty sauces and recipe ideas to try at home. He followed up with an email to ensure we didn't forget what we had learnt. Would recommend the class.

    An amazing family experience.
    What an amazing family adventure. A great experience for both adults and older children. We were with the experienced pasta chef Federico who took us through the whole pasta making experience from start to finish to cooking to eating! You cannot beat fresh made egg pasta! Federico was so attentive and great instructing the children. He even managed to make them clear up and wash up afterwards. A great fun event to involve all the family and a pint with it too! Thank you.

    Epic experience!
    Fabulous. Frederico was a blast. Very informative, very knowledgeable and great company. We ended up staying much longer than planned and every moment was a pleasure. We made tortellini and tagliatelle and both were superb. No surprise he is No. 1 in Bath.

    Excellent Pasta Making Workshop
    Frederico runs a great group pasta workshop. Very personable and knowledgeable and good teacher. Instruction was clear and easy to follow and help was at hand throughout. Everyone achieved really good results and Frederico took the fear out of pasta making. We all learnt a lot in a short time in a relaxed environment and sampling the pasta for lunch was really enjoyable. His sauces and fillings were delicious and the proof really was in the eating. Will definitely be getting a pasta machine and will start to make fresh pasta at home. Excellent day and highly recommend

    Lovely relaxing 3 hours covered in flour
    Fredrico really does make this experience easy, fun and delicious. Really easy step by step guide to creating pasta with lots of ‘what not to dos!’ Which helped lots. Lovely wine served during the experience and the 3 sauces to try with our creations were well made and so fresh. Thanks

    Lovely way to spend a half day in Bath!
    Lovely experience. Federico was so patient and really took the time to make sure everyone understood what they were supposed to do. He didn’t give up until I made my tortellini the proper way. We then cooked and ate our own pasta. Oh, and let’s not forget the delicious wine! This was a gift from a friend. Because of issues with the booking system, they had to reschedule my booking, but kindly offered me an extra ticket to make up for the inconvenience (great customer service). I would def recommend it for a fun half day in Bath!

    A perfect afternoon at the pasta laboratory
    A unique experience located in a gorgeous spot just outside the centre of Bath. Exercise those carbs off before you eat them by walking up Lansdowne Hill (it’s a long steep climb, but totally worth it) Pasta Laboratory is a relaxing environment where you can learn to make fresh pasta under the guidance of an expert. Frederico will send you home with plenty of pasta and top tips to give the confidence to make it again at home. It’s the ideal experience you for couples, groups of friends or someone flying solo who want to learnt to make pasta with confidence, no prior experience required and you can enjoy a glass of wine before during and after the course, the perks of being located in a pub. I would absolutely attend again, maybe a morning session so I can eat the pasta straight away for lunch!

    Fun filled pasta class
    A cracking, fun filled few hours making delicious pasta. Federico was funny, informative and friendly. Made it easy to listen and learn in layman's terms. A full class, but plenty of space to work. Lots of laughs, possibly helped by a few glasses of delicious wine! Would highly recommend booking this class.

What an amazing session for both me and my team! The Pasta Lab was the perfect venue for what we needed, space for a meeting with great coffee and prosecco on tap, and following that an informative, interactive and fun team building session making pasta. We were all really impressed with the quality of the dishes we made and that's thanks to Federico's great instruction and delicious sauces and fillings. I would recommend using the pasta lab for any event be it birthday, business or just for a bit of fun.

Fantastic experience at the Pasta Laboratory with Federico and the rest of the team! Booked the pasta-making class for my company (27 people) and Federico made it so wonderful with his expertise, enthusiasm and personality.

My whole company was completely engaged and came away with a new skill, while having the best time learning. In the 4 hours we were there we made three different types of pasta and had plenty of time to sit in the bar area and have a couple of drinks. We made so much pasta we were able to take some home with us.

Would highly recommend the experience for corporate events, hen/stag parties, birthdays and get togethers for anyone looking for something fun to do in Bath!

We had such a fantastic experience at the Pasta Laboratory for my sister's hen do last weekend. There were just four of us but it was still a private event with nobody else there, which was really great. The class was a great mixture of fun but still educational, we learnt a lot of tips and tricks that we didn't know previously. The pasta we made was so tasty and we were able to take home what we couldn't eat. Federico was such a good host and teacher. And he was able to be flexible with timings to accommodate our awkward train booking after the class! Highly recommend this for any special occasion - we are already thinking of going back with our dad sometime even though we don't live locally! Thanks Federico and Mable!

This was a Christmas present for my boyfriend. The class was amazing, Frederico is a natural at talking, he kept the perfect balance of interesting science behind the pasta, great tips for at home and plenty of humour.
We paid the extra for the ‘eat your creations’ and it was a great additions. The sauces that Frederico made were divine (notably the mushroom sauce was the best thing I’ve ever eaten), and the wine selection was great.
Not only all of this, after the class, we were sent notes on what we covered in the class and great recipes for at home!
Would highly recommend this to everyone and anyone, it was a great day out!

I had a fantastic afternoon learning how to make good pasta. Federico, the host, uses only the best ingredients and explains why, he is very entertaining and attentive to all his guests and clearly knows his stuff. I would definitely recommend this and intend to take visiting relatives to enjoy this experience.

A brilliant experience. Federico is great - a fun, engaging and knowledgable character, who certainly added to the overall experience. The setting is great, the pasta making is done at the right pace and the right level of detail (not too little and not too much) and the sauces Federico prepared to cook the pasta with are delicious. We’d definitely recommend going to the Pasta Laboratory!

I took part in the Pasta Making Group (Cook Your Creations) class. I'd previously made some pasta at home myself but found the process to be very time consuming and with mixed results. I've learnt a lot from this class and appreciated the pragmatic tips for how to make the process much easier.

Federico was an excellent teacher and paced the class really well. There was a good mix of theory and hands on time making the three pastas which kept things moving. There was plenty of time for questions as well which really helped get into the individual needs of the group.

I’d recommend bringing a notebook with you as there is so much knowledge that it was really helpful to keep notes for all the tips as you go through. Would highly recommend this course if you’re new to making pasta or want to develop your skills further.

Amazing and very special experience- perfect for a birthday surprise! Felt really special and Frederico pulled out all the stops. I’d definitely recommend booking a private experience for a special occasion as it was genuinely perfect. From the champagne and cheese board nibbles at the start to a tailored pasta session - the experience was unforgettable. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone and we’ll definitely be back!
