A Little About Us:
Hi! I’m the owner of Social Llama Cafe, a cozy, community-driven spot in Midtown Toronto where good food brings people together. We serve up feel-good brunch, hearty burgers, vibrant salads, smoothies, and more — all made with care. We’re a small team, which means everyone plays a big role. If you’re someone who loves the energy of a kitchen, but also enjoys connecting with people, this might be the perfect fit for you.
About the Role:
We’re looking for a hands-on chef who’s comfortable taking charge of the kitchen while also stepping out front to help with service when needed. It’s a dynamic role, ideal for someone who thrives in a small, collaborative environment and isn’t afraid to wear multiple hats.
What You’ll Do:

In the Kitchen:

• Cook and plate a variety of dishes to café standards
• Manage prep, portioning, and inventory
• Keep the kitchen clean, organized, and up to health standards
• Support with specials and seasonal menu development

Out Front :

Greet and serve customers with warmth

• Take and process orders at the counter
• Help with takeout packaging or table running
• Be the friendly face of Social Llama when we’re short-staffed

What We’re Looking For

• 1+ year of experience in a kitchen setting (restaurant or café)
• Comfortable working solo or in a small team
• Positive attitude, reliability, and pride in your work
• Ability to multitask and stay cool under pressure
• Culinary diploma or certification
• Weekend availability is a must

What We Offer:

We’re a small business, but we care deeply about our people. Here’s what we can provide:

• Free meal + drink during every shift
• Creative input in the kitchen — your ideas matter
• Flexible schedule that works around your life
• Positive, respectful work environment
• Tip sharing (if you’re helping on the floor)
• Staff discounts on off-shift purchases
• Growth opportunities as we expand
