Rimmer and Lovejoy then began co-hosting Channel 4 programme Sunday Brunch and its spin-off Daily Brunch.

Rimmer founded Greens, a vegetarian restaurant in West Didsbury, Manchester in 1990. Two years later, The Guardian described Greens as one of the most exciting new restaurants in the UK.

Rimmer's television career began with Granada Breeze and he has also appeared regularly on programmes including This Morning, Granada Tonight, A Taste for Travel, Lunchtime Live and The Afternoon Show, Gloria’s Open House on Channel 5, Xchange for CBBC and a spot of co-presenting on UKTV's Great Food Live and BBC One's To Buy or Not to Buy. Simon presented This Little Farmer for BBC One and Making a Meal of It, also for BBC Two. He was the mentor on the Channel 5 programme Breaking Into Tesco, in which people competed to get their food products sold by Tesco.

Rimmer's first book, The Accidental Vegetarian, was published in October 2004. His second book, The Rebel Cook, was published in October 2006.
