Description:




📍 Quintrell Downs
💰 £12.75 – £14.00 per hour (£28,000 per annum)
🕑37+ hours per week (including weekends)
📄 Permanent Position


The Role


We’re recruiting for a Café Chef / Experienced Cook to join a busy, well-loved skater café in Quintrell Downs, serving fresh food made daily.


This isn’t your typical kitchen role — it’s a relaxed, fun environment where the team genuinely enjoy what they do, and the atmosphere reflects that.


If you’re looking for somewhere you can cook good food, have a laugh, and be part of a great team, this could be the perfect fit.


What You’ll Be Doing



  • Preparing and cooking fresh, made-to-order meals

  • Getting involved with menu ideas and weekly specials

  • Working independently in a fast-paced but laid-back kitchen

  • Keeping the kitchen organised, clean and running smoothly

  • Managing stock and maintaining high food standards


What They’re Looking For



  • Previous experience as a Chef or Cook

  • Someone confident working independently

  • A positive attitude and good sense of humour is essential

  • Comfortable in a busy kitchen environment

  • Passion for fresh food and consistency


Working Hours



  • Mon–Tues: 7am–close (food until 2pm)

  • Wed–Thurs & Sun: 7am–close (food until 4pm)

  • Fri–Sat: AM or PM shifts (flexible rota – confirmed at interview)


Why This Role Stands Out


Let’s be honest — work-life balance in hospitality is rare… but this place genuinely delivers:


✅ Closed Christmas Eve, Christmas Day & Boxing Day


✅ Closed New Year’s Eve & New Year’s Day


✅ Closed Easter Sunday


✅ Fun, relaxed café vibe


✅ Fresh food made daily


✅ A team where you’ll actually enjoy coming into work


Apply Now!


If you’re a chef or cook looking for something a bit different — somewhere with personality, great people, and a proper work-life balance — we’d love to hear from you.
