Line Chef

Archers Rest Cafe Bistro

Hours: Full-Time
Shifts: Predominantly daytime, including weekends, with occasional evenings and events

We’re looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Line Chef to join our kitchen team at Archers Rest Cafe Bistro.

This is an important role within our kitchen and would suit a confident chef looking for a position with greater responsibility while still enjoying the benefits of predominantly daytime working hours.

Working closely with our Head Chef, you’ll help maintain high standards across our varied menus and busy services. You will also be responsible for covering the Head Chef on their days off, so we're looking for someone comfortable taking responsibility for the kitchen and leading service when required.

The Role

As line chef, your responsibilities will include:

  • Working alongside the Head Chef, particularly during our busy weekend services
  • Taking responsibility for the kitchen and leading service on the Head Chef’s days off
  • Preparing and cooking dishes consistently to a high standard
  • Working across our varied menus, including breakfast, brunch, lunch and seasonal dishes
  • Supporting menu development, specials and new dishes
  • Preparing for and working occasional evening events and special menus
  • Maintaining excellent standards of presentation, quality and portion control
  • Managing prep and ensuring the kitchen is organised and ready for service
  • Supporting and guiding junior members of the kitchen team
  • Monitoring stock levels and helping minimise food waste
  • Ensuring food hygiene, allergen procedures and health & safety standards are followed at all times
  • Helping maintain a clean, organised and efficient kitchen

About You

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has previous experience as a Chef de Partie / Line chef or similar
  • Is confident running a kitchen/service in the Head Chef’s absence
  • Can remain calm, organised and focused during busy periods
  • Has a genuine passion for fresh food and consistently high standards
  • Is comfortable working across a variety of menus rather than producing the same dishes every day
  • Is a strong team player who is equally comfortable taking the lead when required
  • Has good knowledge of food hygiene, allergens and kitchen procedures
  • Is reliable, organised and takes pride in their work
  • Is available to work weekends as part of their normal working week

Working Hours

One of the benefits of this role is that the majority of shifts are daytime hours, making it a great opportunity for an experienced chef looking for a better balance than many traditional restaurant roles.

Weekend availability is essential, as you will work alongside our Head Chef during our busiest services.

We also hold occasional evening events and special services, so some evening availability will be required, although evenings are not the main focus of the role.

What We Offer

  • Predominantly daytime working hours
  • A varied role with the opportunity to take responsibility for the kitchen
  • A mixture of menus, specials and events to keep the role interesting
  • Opportunity to work closely with and support the Head Chef
  • Competitive rate of pay dependent on experience
  • Holiday entitlement
  • Staff tips
  • A friendly, independent café bistro environment
  • Opportunity to develop and progress within the business

Join the Archers Rest Team

If you’re an experienced chef who enjoys great food, busy services and being part of a close-knit team — but would like a role where late nights aren't the norm — we’d love to hear from you.

Pay: £28,500.00 per year

Benefits:

  • Discounted or free food
  • Employee discount
  • On-site parking

Ability to commute/relocate:

  • Bedford MK40 4SQ: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)

Experience:

  • Kitchen: 3 years (required)

Work Location: In person
