Chef

We're thrilled to be expanding our kitchen team at The Lost Barn. Our unique venue, an award-winning coffee roastery with a thriving open plan café and farm store, is set in a beautiful rural location. Since opening three years ago, we've grown steadily as a destination, and we're excited to embark on our next chapter.

With a new event space almost complete in our meadow, we are expanding our kitchen facilities and looking to recruit an additional chef to join the team at this very exciting time.

The ideal candidate will have proven experience working in a busy kitchen with a seasonal menu. You'll join our friendly team to create and serve our brunch-style menu to a high standard, as well as working with seasonal ingredients to also produce some artisan products that retail in our farm store. Additionally, you'll enjoy the extra opportunities that our new event space brings - think outdoor BBQ cooking, sharing platters, and seasonal feasts.

As a member of our team you will be joining a fun, professional, hardworking and supportive hospitality family.

Wage/salary is dependant on experience. Please get in touch for a chat to discuss the opportunities of this role further.
