About our studio
Welcome to your home away from home for any and all culinary-focused film, video, or event needs. Dedicated spaces to shoot while simultaneously cooking to be ready for the next frame or segment, and to tackle retouching after you’ve wrapped shooting. The serene, thoughtfully equipped facility is tailored to the unique needs of all parties involved, reflecting the insights of professional chefs and photographers whom Cooktop closely consulted when determining the space’s design and capacities. The perfect kitchen studio rental for your needs.
Rental includes exclusive use of the 2 kitchens, all appliances big and small, and all cookware.
We allow photographers to bring in their own equipment but if they are renting, please know that we can rent for them at the same price thus shifting the responsibility to us for EQ.
Passenger elevators are large enough to bring in most EQ and props.
Our freight runs from 8:45-4:30 and it large enough in which to park a van.
