Social Media Influencer

The Staff Canteen

Social Media Influencer of the year Poppy O’Toole began her journey as a chef by following a classical route, training at Purnell’s and working in some of the UK’s best restaurants including The Wilderness and Allbright in London.

When the pandemic

struck, she put her skills to use on social media, amassing 1.7 million followers on TikTok and a further 146,000 on Instagram for her video tutorials showing people recipes and techniques learned in professional kitchens.

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.
