Cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner for locals and Cape-bound travellers in a busy highway kitchen. Casual or full time, with sponsorship possible for the right person.
Lakeland Roadhouse is looking for a Chef / Cook to join our kitchen team, either casual or full-time. We serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week on the Mulligan Highway — the gateway to the Cape — so the pass can be quiet one hour and slammed the next.
What you will do
- Cook meals to ticket across breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
- Prep, restock, and keep the kitchen moving through rushes.
- Hold food safety and cleanliness standards on every shift.
- Work with front of house so meals go out accurately and on time.
- Help with closing, cleaning, and end-of-shift kitchen duties.
What we are looking for
- Kitchen experience in a cafe, pub, roadhouse, or similar high-volume setting.
- Reliable availability, including early starts and later finishes across the week.
- A calm, practical approach when the tickets stack up.
- Food safety certification is a plus, but not required.
What we offer
- Casual or full-time hours with a friendly, down-to-earth team.
- A real roadhouse kitchen serving locals, travellers, and regulars every day.
- Meals on shift where applicable.
- Visa sponsorship may be available for the right person.
