Meze Publishing
Meze Publishing is a creative collaboration of food-loving publishing professionals. Launched in 2013 by cookbook designer Paul Cocker and experienced publisher Phil Turner, we specialise in cookbooks and have published over 100 to date, as well as a small number of children’s and comedy titles under two imprints, Mini Meze and Unfiltered. Back in our early days, Meze won Best Newcomer at the 2016 Independent Publishing Awards, and our managing director Phil Turner is now Chair of the Independent Publisher’s Guild (IPG) for 2022-23. Several of our books have become award-winners themselves, including For The Love of the Land by Jenny Jefferies, which won Best Cook Book by Woman and Home Magazine and whose debut author has since published three more successful books with us. Out of My Tree – Midsummer House by two-Michelin-starred chef Daniel Clifford was named as one of The Guardian’s top 20 cookbooks of 2018, and Meze publications are regularly featured in other high-profile media including Countryfile Magazine, The Daily Mail, Waitrose Magazine, Home and Garden and many more.
