Looking for a kitchen job with no late nights? Our restaurant closes at 3:00 PM every day, allowing you to enjoy your evenings.

We are seeking a reliable and hardworking team member to join our kitchen staff for 20+ hours per week.  Weekend availability is required.

This position works our sandwich and bagel station, preparing made-to-order sandwiches, bagels, sides, and operating the fryer. Team members will also assist with kitchen prep work, including ingredient preparation, portioning, stocking stations, and helping maintain a clean and organized kitchen.

We are an independent, locally owned scratch kitchen serving breakfast and lunch favorites including eggs, bagels, sandwiches, soups, and more. We take pride in serving high-quality food and creating a positive workplace culture.

Successful candidates will demonstrate:

  • Strong attention to detail
  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn
  • Dependability and punctuality
  • Ability to work well as part of a team
  • Kindness and professionalism toward coworkers and guests
  • A strong work ethic
  • Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment

Previous kitchen experience is required.

This position begins as an hourly role, but we believe in promoting from within. Outstanding employees have opportunities for advancement, including leadership and salaried positions as our company continues to grow.

If you're looking for daytime hours, a supportive team, and room to grow with a local business, we'd love to hear from you.
