[4] Thomas has also appeared as himself in a number of television shows produced in the United Kingdom, including Russell Howard's Good News, the Great British Menu and Junior MasterChef, as well as the BBC Three documentary titled Britain's Youngest Chef featuring the trials, tribulations and meteoric rise of a young Chef Luke Thomas.
[5] In 2021, Thomas became the CEO and co-owner of Café Habana, a downtown New York City restaurant serving Cuban and Mexican inspired cuisine that was founded in 1998 by entrepreneur and investor Sean Meenan, who also went on to open Café Habana locations in Tokyo, Dubai, and Malibu, California with Casamigos Tequila co-founder Rande Gerber.
[11] In 2013, Thomas opened a pop-up restaurant for six months in Mayfair, London, alongside hotelier Mark Fuller.
[18] Television critic for The Guardian, Tim Dowling, said of the BBC Three series starring chef Luke Thomas and featuring hotelier Mark Fuller, "This was ostensibly intended to be a documentary about a talented but overambitious young lad who would learn from his mistakes before he jeopardized a bright future.
But, I'm afraid I came away thinking that all the difficulties featured in the series filmed at the Sanctum on the Green restaurant could have been overcome more quickly if everybody had just shut up and listened to Luke.
