We’re a much-loved daytime café in Caterham-on-the-Hill preparing for a full refurbishment and an exciting expansion into late-night service on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. With a bar licence already in place, we’re ready to evolve — and now we’re looking for an ambitious Chef Partner to help shape our next chapter.
This isn’t a traditional job.
It’s a chance to become a genuine equity partner and co-create a small, characterful, community-focused evening venue.
Who we’re looking for
A chef with:
Real skill and passion for flavour — whether your thing is modern bistro, small plates, creative comfort food, or something fresh and unique
Experience running a kitchen, costing dishes, and leading service with confidence
An entrepreneurial streak — someone who wants ownership, input, and long-term involvement
A collaborative, down-to-earth attitude (no egos; just good food and good energy)
What we’re offering
Equity partnership in a growing independent business
Creative freedom to design and develop the evening menu
A freshly refurbished space ready for a bold, welcoming night-time identity
Support with operations, marketing, and building the brand
An established daytime customer base — and room to grow something exciting after dark
If you’re itching to step into something of your own — to build a menu people remember, to put your name on a project, and to be part of a friendly, ambitious local venue — we’d love to talk.
Bring your ideas. Bring your passion.
Let’s build something special together.
