Small Contribution. Big Impact.
The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.
We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.
A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.

Coming up next week on The Staff Canteen
We have lots of goodies coming up for you next week on The Staff Canteen starting with master chocolatier Damian Allsop in our Pastry Chef feature; Clare Smyth's chef de cuisine at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, Matt Abé, is our Hero of the Hotplate; and we have an editorial looking at the effect on business of gaining or losing a star in the run up to the Michelin Guide 2014.
