Event Format


Social Cooking takes great pride in offering our guests a consistent event format and quality experience.

Choose from a Short & Sharp Challenge or one of our three hour formats (Masterchef, Mystery Box Challenge or Recipe Challenge), let us know how many guests will be attending, and any dietary requirements. We’ll take care of the rest.

All our events offer a range of quality produce and proteins, with more than enough to cater to even the largest appetites. We’re fully licensed at both our Auckland permanent and pop-up premises, and can supply additional touches, such as canapé platters or cocktail making to kick your event off.

We’ll even provide a delicious house made dessert with all three hour event format. Desserts can also be purchased as an optional addition to our Short & Sharp Challenges.

Quality produce and proteins

We're proud of the quality of our produce and proteins, which we source from premium local suppliers. Our produce is always fresh and abundant, with more than enough to cater to even the largest appetites.



We're fully licenced

Both our permanent premises in Auckland, and our pop-up venues nationwide can offer a full range of wines, beers and spirits. If you want something a little special, please let us know and we can source this for you.
