Sandbanks Events 1

Our events are all about coming together over great food and drink, whether it’s trying new dishes at our Supper Clubs, picking up clever tips in a Masterclass, letting little ones meet sea creatures at Fishy Fun, enjoying a coffee and cake for charity at our Coffee Mornings, or joining us for one-off special events throughout the year.


Bar Sessions with Ed, Jack and Charlie Stein

After the fun of last year’s Basque Bar Session, Ed, Jack and Charlie will host a run of evenings that alternate between Tapas & Tunes and Tacos & Tunes. Each night brings a slightly different combination from the three of them, but the same idea at heart: good food coming from the kitchen, music on the decks, and a room that feels full of life.
No need to book, just come in, find a spot and settle in for the evening from 7pm.

Tacos & Tunes

The newer rhythm in the series.
On these nights, Adam and Jack look to Mexico: a menu of tacos designed for passing around the table. Charlie will be on hand with drinks that suit the food, while Ed keeps the music rolling into the evening.

Thursday 12th November

Tapas & Tunes

A nod to last year’s Basque Bar Sessions.
Head Chef Adam and Jack turn to Spanish and Basque cooking, Charlie will be pouring Spanish wines, including Txakoli served the traditional way from height. Ed sets the tone with a soundtrack that carries the evening from first glass to last order.

Thursday 21st May | Thursday 8th October

Supper Clubs

Sandbanks Events 4

Imagine a long table, the clink of glasses, the hum of conversation and the steam of something delicious just out of the oven. Our supper clubs are all about coming together, guests, chefs, and our hosting team, to share stories, ideas and, of course, great food.

Each evening has its own theme, drawn from Rick’s cookbooks, with a three-course menu of dishes you won’t see on our regular menu. As you enjoy each course, Head Chef Adam and his knowledge chefs and Restaurant Managers Ramon and Kat will share the stories and secrets behind the recipes, bringing the dishes to life in a way only they can.

Masterclasses

Sandbanks Events 6

Start your evening with a touch of curiosity and a glass of wine in hand. Our themed, hour-long masterclasses with Sous Chef Razvan are the perfect way to try something new, learn a skill, or pick up a few clever tips to make life in the kitchen easier. Along the way, you’ll enjoy plenty of tasters, discovering the flavours and techniques that make each recipe special.

It’s hands-on, interactive, and designed to give you the confidence to recreate a classic dish at home. And when the masterclass ends, why not make a night of it with dinner in our Harbour View restaurant.
