Entry Level Line Cook - Evening shifts - 1yrs + experience

Waldschanke Ciders & Coffee is a family-owned specialty Hard Cider taproom, Coffee house, and Small Restaurant located in the Sunnyside neighborhood of Denver, Colorado. Known for its warm and inviting atmosphere, Waldschanke combines a love for craft cider with expertly brewed coffee offerings and a unique small-bites menu. As a community-driven business, it places a strong emphasis on local support and genuine connections with its patrons. This neighborhood establishment serves as a vibrant meeting place where quality beverages and food merge with friendly service and a welcoming environment. Employees are encouraged to engage authentically with guests, fostering a sense of belonging and community spirit that sets Waldschanke apart from typical taprooms and cafes.

The role offered is for a dependable and experienced Cook who can independently manage kitchen responsibilities while contributing positively to the team and community interaction. The position requires a passion for preparing food with a European twist, including menu items like schnitzel, burgers, baguette sandwiches, flatbreads, and pretzels. This position is not for a Kitchen Manager or Hiring Manager but for a dedicated kitchen team member ready to prepare and serve exceptional food, manage kitchen setup and cleaning tasks, and engage directly with customers at the kitchen window in a fast-paced environment without table service. Working hours primarily cover lunch and dinner services Monday through Sunday, with some flexibility needed for event support, closing procedures, and coverage of team absences. Employees work collaboratively with bartenders and baristas to maintain a smooth closing routine and daily operations.

This is an excellent career opportunity for someone who thrives in a community-focused, fast-paced setting and values connection with guests along with delivering high-quality food consistently. The ideal candidate exhibits strong communication skills, technology proficiency including POS and scheduling software, and the ability to stay efficient under pressure. Joining Waldschanke means becoming part of a team that prioritizes creating a safe, enjoyable, and welcoming space where customers and employees alike feel valued and supported. Employment is contingent upon being 21 years of age or older, as the kitchen operates within a taproom/bar setting. Benefits and salary details are typically discussed during the hiring process, reflecting the commitment of Waldschanke to foster employee satisfaction and growth within a vibrant and inclusive workplace.
