Join the team at Good Ways in Redfern and Alexandria, on Gadigal Country.

Good Ways is a proudly Australian bakery, sandwich shop and café with a passion for quality food, genuine hospitality and community.

We are committed to fostering this same respect throughout our workplace and within the communities we serve.

About Good Ways

Everything we do is centred around making exceptional food from scratch. We bake our own bread, prepare as much as possible in-house and work with some of Australia's best producers to deliver consistently high-quality products. Our bakery and cafés are open seven days a week, from 7:00am–3:00pm on weekdays and 8:00am–2:00pm on weekends.
