About Us
At Prado, the good starts here. We serve exceptional coffee, homemade brunch, and baked treats while creating a warm, community-driven space. Our team is all about quality food, great coffee, and genuine hospitality.
The Role
We’re looking for a weekend cook who’s quick on their feet and loves making great food look (and taste) amazing. This role is perfect for someone with kitchen chops who thrives in a fast-paced, positive vibe and appreciates a well-run, organized kitchen.
What You’ll Do:
*Cook and plate our brunch menu (think poached eggs, grilled sandwiches, perfect persentation) for dine-in and takeout orders (including Uber & Ritual).
*Handle kitchen prep, some light baking, and cookie scooping.
*Keep the kitchen clean and organized (sanitizing, dishes, sweeping, mopping).
*Follow all food safety and hygiene standards (gloves, handwashing, FIFO, the works).
*Help keep inventory stocked and fresh; flag ordering needs to the Manager.
*Team Collaboration - jump in and help wherever needed—teamwork makes the dream work.
What We’re Looking For:
*Kitchen or culinary school experience, ideally in a busy café or brunch spot.
*Food Safe Level 1 (or ready to get certified).
*Reliable, positive attitude - you show up and get the job done.
*Comfortable working independently and communicating well with the FOH team.
*Able to handle the physical side (on your feet, lifting up to 25 lbs, etc.).
*Availability on weekends (bonus if you can cover other shifts sometimes).
What’s in it for You:
*Competitive hourly pay + tips
*Staff meals and all the coffee you need on shift
*A supportive, friendly team that values respect and growth
*Opportunities to move up as Prado grows
If you’re ready to bring your culinary skills to the next level and join an exciting team, we want to hear from you!
