Longfield Academy is very proud of the opportunity for our students to access a Professional Catering Course (City & Guilds) at Post 16. Our students complete Level 1, 2 and 3 courses covering all aspects of food preparation, handling, planning and costing menus as well as front of house service.
The Telescope Bistro is a fine dining experience open to the public every Thursday and Friday. We seat up to 35 diners in each sitting with a menu planned by the students.
Our guests are amazed at the quality of food and service and enjoy dining during the academy day.
Please see below the menu for this week.
