Breakfast Chef - London
- Breakfast Chef - London* *Breakfast Chef - The Dog & Fox, Wimbledon Village* *Up to 15 per hour* *Are you a morning person? Or, more realistically, a person who's very good at cooking in the morning?* The Dog & Fox is looking for a Breakfast Chef to own our mornings.
We're not after someone who can reheat a hash brown with confidence.
We want a cook who knows their way around fresh ingredients, takes pride in a properly poached egg, and understands that hollandaise is a commitment, not a sachet. *What you'll be doing* * Running the breakfast and brunch service from prep to pass * Cooking everything fresh : proper eggs, good bacon, real sourdough, and a hollandaise that never splits (or, if it does, you know how to bring it back) * Prepping, ordering and keeping stock tight so nothing runs out mid-rush * Keeping your section spotless and your food safety standards higher than the Centre Court roof * Working with the wider kitchen team to keep standards consistent from first coffee to last orders * Bringing ideas to the menu.
If you've got a better way to do avocado on toast, we're listening *What we're looking for* * Proven experience in a fresh-food kitchen (this is essential, not a nice-to-have) * Confidence running a busy breakfast service on your own * Solid knowledge of food safety and allergen procedures (Level 2 Food Hygiene or above) * Calm under pressure.
Twenty covers walking in at 9 : 01 on a Sunday should excite you, not frighten you * Reliability.
Breakfast waits for no one, and neither do our regulars * A sense of humour.
You'll need it, and so will we *What's in it for you* * Up to 14.5 per hour * Early starts, with your afternoons and evenings your own * Staff meals (you'll probably be cooking them, but still) * Training and real room to grow * A friendly team in one of the best-loved pubs in Wimbledon Village *About us* The Dog & Fox has been part of Wimbledon Village life for a very long time.
We're a proper pub that takes its food seriously and itself slightly less so.
Our breakfast regulars range from dog walkers to tennis fans to people who just need a fry-up and a quiet word.
We want them all leaving happy. If you love fresh food, early mornings don't scare you, and you can crack an egg one-handed (or are prepared to learn), we'd love to hear from you. *Apply now.
The eggs aren't going to poach themselves.*
