Benson of Broadway is run by James Benson.
He has been cooking since the age of 3 when, as the family legend goes, he stood on a chair by
the stove teaching his Nana how to make 'rivotto' before he could even pronounce it.
He started his career as a chef at the Goblets Wine Bar, part of the Lygon Arms, Broadway, whilst
studying for his catering NVQ's at Stratford-on-avon College in his spare time. Charingworth Manor came next before a move
back to the Lygon Arms Hotel, where he started his larder apprenticeship.

After the Lygon Arms he worked at the world-renowned Claridge’s in London, serving Royalty, Politicians,
celebrities, and all the rest of the world. Here he specialised in canapes, buffets and starters, serving all variations of
world cuisine to anywhere between 50 and 1000 people a day, all with the super-perfection that the guests expected.
A place in the semi-finals of the Academy of Culinary Arts Annual Awards of Excellence, four promotions, two
employee of the month awards and an Employee of the Year later it was time for new things. Back in Broadway…..
