Food Punks is one of Tweeddale Youth Action’s income generating social enterprises and started as an initiative to teach simple cookery skills that would help young people learn how to cook local fresh food from scratch and lead lower carbon lifestyles.

From our commercial preparation kitchen in Innerleithen in the Scottish Borders we have built a strong reputation for our great food and service and we have the equipment and the know-how to deliver exciting food at a reasonable price!

Pressure, challenge and tight time deadlines have given our Food Punks a true understanding of the catering and hospitality industry and have equipped our team with team work, time keeping and communication skills that are highly transferable.

A sense of achievement, a sense of belonging, tired aching muscles and the euphoria of getting through it with happy, smiling, well fed customers becomes addictive and we remain humbled by the work ethic, commitment and drive that our Food Punks bring.
