Joe Hill Biography – Joe Hill Wiki
Joe Hill is Chef Patron and owner of The Table in Broadstairs and a contestant on Series 19 of Great British Menu. Born and bred in London, Joe spent most of the formative years of his career training in Soho House kitchens, from Dean Street Townhouse to Shoreditch House and Greek Street. He then moved to work with Gordon Ramsay and Tom Aikens. Most recently he opened his own restaurant The Table in Broadstairs.
Joe’s journey to becoming a renowned chef was anything but ordinary. Before donning his chef’s hat, Joe pursued his love for graphic design at St Martin’s, and even dabbled in the world of DJing.
“I was actually a DJ – my ex told me I had to get a “real job”. I loved cooking and food. My mum lived in Japan, so she brought me up on amazing Japanese and Asian cuisine, and my dad was also a good cook. It was what I was passionate about. So that’s what I did,” he told Soho House.
Joe’s career started off in a humble pub in Mayfair, where he quickly rose to the challenge when the head chef unexpectedly left. Armed with determination and a strong work ethic, Joe embraced the steep learning curve of the kitchen, even concealing his disability to prove that he could excel in the culinary world.
Having honed his skills and worked alongside culinary giants like Gordon Ramsay and Tom Aikens, Joe’s dream of owning his own restaurant finally became a reality in Broadstairs with the opening of The Table. Inspired by Japan, and his mother’s Japanese influence, Joe initially envisioned a seafood-focused eatery by the seaside. However, his concept evolved into a unique small plates tasting restaurant.

Joe Hill Hand
Great British Menu contestant Joe Hill was born with one hand. When he first started out he didn’t want colleagues to even realise he only had one hand in fear of being treated differently.
“When I first started cheffing I tried to hide my hand, which makes me laugh thinking about it now. I didn’t want the Head Chef to see me or give me any different judgment on my work or the way I worked. I just wanted to be treated exactly the same as everyone else,” he told Delish UK.
