We’re on the hunt for a Barista/FOH to join our team.

This role will also entail working on the café floor, but some barista experience and confidence working solo behind the machine is necessary. This role would be great for someone with another job, as we can be relatively flexible with shift days and do rostering monthly in advance.

About the role
☕️ Barista experience is essential
🥑 Café experience preferred
⏰ Approx 10-15 hours available over 2-3 days (mix of weekday and weekend availability required)
🌞 Potential opportunity for more hours leading into Christmas and summer months
👋🏼 We are looking to fill this position as soon as possible

Get in touch! Please get in touch with Taylor via email at [email protected] and include your resume, a bit about yourself and your full availability for September onwards.

Our Spicy Stracciatella Eggs are topped with a blend of our POW! Jammy Chilli Oil and BOMBA! Spicy Calabrese Chilli for the perfect balance between spice and sweetness that absolutely hits every time. Add some crispy fried garlic, a couple of poachies, and scoop it up all with The Lost Loaf sourdough.

We have a new menu coming in the next few weeks! Should we keep Spicy Stracciatella Eggs, or delete her? 🤷🏼‍♀️

We know parking around Bowden is a little trickier than usual at the moment! While a new car park is being built right across the road from Plant 4 Bowden and My Grandma Ben, a temporary UPark has opened on Drayton Street, offering 3 hours of free parking for our customers. It has heaps of indoor and outdoor parking and is less than a 5-minute walk to Plant 4 (you’ll find it right next to our friends at ODDIO).

A huge thank you to everyone who’s taking the time to find a park and pay us a visit. We know it’s an extra step (literally), and we genuinely appreciate everyone making the effort to support not only us, but all the incredible small businesses that make Bowden such a great community. 💛

There’s still street parking available throughout the area, along with easy access via the Bowden train station and Bowden tram stop. Accessible parking remains available on Third Street and Fourth Street.

Planning a visit? Bookings always welcome via the link in our bio. See you for brekkie soon! 👋🏼
