Your Only Friend, an ambitious, sandwich-obsessed cocktail bar with its sights set on a James Beard Award (or at least making our moms proud), is hiring a Line Cook/Sandwich Maker to join our team.
Founded by Paul Taylor and Sherra Kurtz, Your Only Friend is built on a deep love of food, hospitality, and the belief that a perfectly crafted sandwich can change the world. We’re looking for someone who shares that vision and wants to be a key part of our kitchen.
What We're Looking For:
- Previous kitchen or prep experience (sandwich-making experience is a big plus).
- A strong interest in food—specifically sandwiches.
- A belief that the perfect combination of bread and filling can be life-changing.
- A task-oriented, clean, and organized approach to work.
- A history of traveling at least 25 miles (or 40.2336 kilometers, for our metric fans) just to eat or drink something special.
- A willingness to go deep down the rabbit hole of smoked, boiled, fermented, canned, or encased foods.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Crafting sandwiches and executing our menu.
- Packaging orders and ensuring they’re delivered to guests perfectly.
-Managing inventory, par levels, and communicating kitchen needs.
- Assisting with prep as needed.
- Stocking, restocking, and keeping the kitchen organized.
- Handling opening and closing duties.
- Grease filtration and disposal (yes, it’s part of the job, but we promise there are fun parts too).
- Equipment maintenance and cleaning.
- Restroom upkeep and general cleanliness.
- Other duties as assigned (it’s a kitchen—things pop up).
What We Offer:
- Competitive pay.
- Educational support (because learning never stops).
- Accrued paid time off.
- Really, really good sandwiches.
Who Should Apply?
We want someone passionate about hospitality, food (especially sandwiches), and beverages. If you get excited about a perfect sandwich, a well-balanced cocktail, or the idea of making something delicious for someone else, this might be the place for you.
This is a full-time position, Wednesday through Sunday, 9 am – 4 pm.
Your Only Friend is an Equal Opportunity Employer—we celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive and safe environment for all team members.
