Marie Mitchell is a writer, chef and co-founder of Island Social Club – a space that was aimed at filling the void left by the erosion of London’s once thriving Caribbean social scene. Through her cooking, Marie explores Caribbean culture and food with authenticity and without limits. Conscious of driving British-Caribbean cuisine, and thus culture, forward, she develops her dishes by focusing on history, geography, and contemporary ingredients found in her locale and home in London. Marie is a champion of social, economic and political equity, inclusivity, sustainability, and supporting and creating spaces for self-care and mental health awareness. 

Marie has written for Observer Food Monthly, Guardian Feast, Borough Market, Waitrose Food and Resy London. She’s spoken live at the DO Lectures, featured on Sunday Brunch, Broadcasting House, BBC Radio 4, and Jamie Oliver’s Meat Free Meals. Her first cookbook, Kin, a collection of recipes from the Caribbean and its diaspora, was published in 2024 by Particular Books, and will be published in 2025 by Norton.
