Tom was born in Salisbury on July 27, 1973. He has a younger brother. His parents divorced when he was 11. Tom began cooking for himself and his brother after school while his mother was at work. He attended a youth theatre for three weeks and this led to him being cast in a Miss Marple Christmas special.

Kerridge's first professional cooking job was as a commis chef at Calcot Manor in Tetbury in 1991. He worked in several other restaurants before joining Rhodes in the Square in 1999 as a sous chef under Gary Rhodes. He spent time in other restaurants before opening his own gastropub, The Hand & Flowers, in 2005. It gained a Michelin star in 2006 and again in 2012. He has since appeared on a number of TV shows in his capacity as a chef, including Great British Menu and Saturday Kitchen. He has also presented his own series, Tom Kerridge's Proper Pub Food and Spring Kitchen with Tom Kerridge. In 2015, he became a co-host on Food and Drink.
Quote:
'Ninety minutes of standing in the rain with my mates watching football is one of the few times I truly get away from cooking.'
