Joe Woodhouse Ox Barn Restaurant Takeover

  • Thyme Lechlade, England, GL7 3NX United Kingdom (map)

This summer, cookbook author Joe Woodhouse comes to Thyme to cook a vegetarian feast with Chef Director Charlie Hibbert.

Joe cooks with the sort of quiet confidence that has won him some serious admirers, earning praise from food writers like Nigella Lawson, Rachel Roddy and Anna Jones. Joe and Charlie will use the very best early summer produce from Thyme's Kitchen Gardens to cook a four-course set menu.

Before the supper, Joe will be in conversation with food writer Molly Tait-Hyland, speaking about his experiences, and Joe will be signing copies of Weeknight Vegetarian on the night.

Joe Woodhouse

Joe Woodhouse grew up on farms in Cambridge and Scarborough. In his twenties, he trained as a chef and worked in restaurants before embarking on a career as a food stylist and food and travel photographer. Joe has been a vegetarian since he was ten years old and has since developed a deep understanding of flavoursome vegetarian cooking that draws its inspiration from seasonality and good ingredients. He lives in London with his wife and two children.


Charlie Hibbert

Charlie Hibbert grew up in a family of people who love to cook and entertain. The kitchen quickly became his favourite place to be, and he started working at the Swan at Southrop when he was 13-years-old as a kitchen porter.

Charlie went on to train at Ballymaloe Cookery School in Ireland, before honing his skills under the guidance of renowned chef Jeremy Lee MBE at Quo Vadis in London. His mother, Caryn Hibbert, founded Thyme in 2007 and in 2018, Charlie returned to the Cotswolds to open the Ox Barn - to wide acclaim. He later took over the kitchen operations of the Swan also. His recipes have since been featured in publications including The Sunday Times, The Telegraph, and House & Garden.
