About the Role

Every member of The Drake team plays a key role in creating a great experience from start to finish. As a member of our Kitchen team, you’ll:

• Cook & prep: Assist with food preparation and cooking, ensuring every dish meets our high standards. Each shift includes a mix of prep and line work, with shared duties across the team.
• Cross-train: Most of our team members are trained in both the kitchen and front of house, fostering a supportive, well-rounded environment. While your initial focus will be in the kitchen, there may be opportunities to learn other roles within the business.
• Collaborate: Work closely with a small, dedicated crew in a fast-paced, fun environment where teamwork is everything.

• Team mindset: You know that a great shift depends on teamwork and mutual support.

Preferred Experience

• Service experience: Previous work in restaurant service or customer-facing roles.
• Craft beer knowledge: Interest or experience with craft beer and beer styles.
• Leadership potential: Opportunities for advancement in both Kitchen and Front of House are available for the right fit.

Experience is an asset, but not essential—we value passion, curiosity, and a strong work ethic above all else.

Our Food Program

We work closely with local farms, foragers, and specialty producers to create an approachable yet meticulously crafted menu. Expect to work with top-quality seasonal ingredients, with a focus on preservation, fermentation, and a rotating, ingredient-driven menu.

Our Craft Beer Program

We source the best examples of each style from independent craft breweries and pour from 29 constantly rotating taps to keep things fresh and exciting. Education is key—our goal is to share knowledge and deliver the best possible craft beer experience to our guests.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

At The Drake, we celebrate diversity and strive to create a workplace where everyone can thrive. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and identities, and maintain zero tolerance for discrimination or harassment.
