London chef Joe Hill trained under Gordon Ramsey and Jean-George Vongerichten before entering the Soho House phenomenon at Dean St Townhouse. He soon took over as Head Chef at Soho House’s central flagship members club, and later at its new East London city retreat, Shoreditch House. Feeling the need to branch out and explore new possibilities, Joe started up his own consultancy, and adding his 5 years of design experience to his 15 of chef-ing, he was able to inspire restaurants and their teams to break the mould, and bring a new and exciting dimension to the dining experience.

After moving from the capital for a more family centred life by the sea, Joe took up the position of Head Chef at the well-known local restaurant Wyatt and Jones, bringing sophistication to its fish-based menus. But Joe has always dreamed of having his own small intimate meeting place – and more recently opened ‘The Table’ – where he can concentrate on sourcing local seasonal produce to create his small plate sensations. Joe recently became executive head chef of Margate’s Albion Rooms – the Libertine’s newly opened gothic/punk recording studio/guest house/dining rooms, which are already a local sensation. With a growing interest in health and nutrition, Joe continues to explore new possibilities, consulting on a wide range of projects, while nurturing his own creative hub.
