Pasture Bristol is where it all began. The birthplace of Fire, Meat, Music and the beating heart of everything we stand for. With its character-rich setting, flagstone floors, sweeping staircase, and open kitchen filled with the sizzle of live-fire cooking, this is more than just a restaurant — it’s a celebration of craft, quality, and connection.
From day one, we've stayed true to our roots. We source only the very best suckled native beef from farms across the southwest, all grass-fed and raised with care. Our in-house butchers dry-age every cut for a minimum of 35 days and prepare each steak fresh for service. It’s a level of detail that shows in every dish and defines who we are.
Behind the food is a passionate, tight-knit team, warm, welcoming, and dedicated to delivering unforgettable dining experiences night after night. Whether you're stepping into the kitchen, joining the front-of-house, or leading service from the floor, Pasture Bristol offers the chance to be part of something truly special — the original flame that started it all.
What You’ll Be Doing: As a vital part of the kitchen team, you’ll be responsible for keeping the space clean, organised, and running smoothly. This includes washing dishes, utensils, and equipment, maintaining hygiene standards, and supporting the chefs whenever needed. You’ll play a hands-on role in keeping up with the fast pace of service, helping to ensure everything is in place for a high-performing kitchen.
We’re looking for someone who’s hardworking, reliable, and thrives in a busy, high-energy environment. You’re the kind of person who gets stuck in, keeps things moving, and always has your team’s back. With great attention to detail, you’ll take pride in cleanliness, organisation, and efficiency. You’ll also be comfortable handling physical tasks like lifting stock, managing waste, and staying on top of the demands of a busy service.
