We are looking for a kitchen porter who is ready for a new challenge and enjoys being an active member of the kitchen team. If you want an opportunity to develop new skills and grow within a fast paced, driven environment then this is the ideal role for you.
On the menu, our all-day food offer focuses on seasonality and sharing - from small plates to hearty gastropub classics - while weekends are all about Saturday brunch and stunning Sunday roasts. Behind the bar you'll find the best of London's craft beer scene, classic cocktails, small-batch gins and artisan wines. Located opposite Balham station, we're the perfect spot for a few pints, a quick bite, or dinner with friends and family, and our street-side terrace is made for al fresco drinking and dining.
