General Manager

Cheba Hut General Manager

Cheba Hut started back in 1998 in Tempe, Arizona. We started with a pipe dream.... Craft some tasty, stoner-approved toasted subs and munchies from scratch, create a laid-back workplace for our friends, and do it all in a relaxed environment where people could escape the grind. We couldn't have accomplished anything without the help of many hardworking friends along the way, and now we need you to help us continue our journey!

At Cheba Hut, we do it a little differently. We are real people who craft real food for other real people. We give a damn and take pride in what we do. We embrace individuality. We puff, puff, give. And we choose to flip the bird to the man! If you are stuck at a job with no room for growth or simply want something fresh where you can be yourself, make some tasty grub, and listen to some sweet jams, take advantage of this opportunity, and come have some fun with us.
