London
We are looking for a creative and motivated chef to join our kitchen team at Pear Tree Cafe, Clapham Common,
We are looking for a chef who is passionate and enthusiastic and also likes working in a pizza section. Your role will be half in the kitchen and half as a pizza chef.
All the dough is all made in house by our incredible bakers and our chefs then come up with delicious seasonal toppings to complement the crispy bases! Our three cafes serve an All-Day Menu of breakfast, brunch and lunch and as the summer draws closer we open in the evening serving delicious sourdough pizzas and flatbreads.
We opened our first cafe in 2016 and quickly built a fantastic reputation in Battersea Park. In 2021, we launched our second site on Clapham Common, and in 2024 we opened our third cafe in Lincoln’s Inn Fields. We are known for our signature menus of thoughtfully crafted cafe style dishes, bringing a fresh, seasonal and innovative approach to London’s cafe scene. It is essential that you are well organised and able to ensure that our high standards are kept up with. Consistency and quality are both key to our production. You will also work closely with FOH and kitchen and bakery teams - we are one big family team at Pear Tree Cafe and we like everyone to be involved!
