Dear friends, things are not easy for everyone right now. We understand that. We also know that people who open a food business and work for one are making a choice.
This is not a glamorous industry; there are long hours, stinky/hot spaces, lifting and carrying, and endless work to be done daily. But we love it.
Food business owners and workers don’t just join this industry for fun; we love what we do with food, with people, with service, with our blood, sweat, and tears.
Clover opened its first location when we were at the gas station in Beacon Hill. One of our customers, a lovely lady who always orders a veggie burrito 😊, began working for them at the food truck, then got promoted to operations at the brick-and-mortar, and went on to open more shops as part of her job.
We always heard that it was a great place, and while we didn’t really eat there often, we knew people liked it and they shared our business values. Local food, fair pay, community-driven. As we’ve struggled to bounce back, it is heartbreaking to see this business close all locations and wonder what will happen to its people. Having just escaped this scenario, it is a stress and pain we do not wish upon anyone.
To the Clover team members: we are currently hiring for 2 kitchen positions. We’re not as big or, perhaps, fancy as the food you may have made, but we’re fresh, authentic, and we start at $16 an hour and increase by the full dollar. Our current staff has been with us for almost 5 years each, post-covid, and we all take a two-week holiday break for Christmas and New Year’s. If you speak Spanish, have line experience, are willing to multitask, and want to make Mexican food, please come by to get an application.
We truly hope you all find work soon and keep in touch with each other ❤️.
To the customers and general public: if you have $20 extra bucks every month, spentld it at a local food business if your buy food. We all need you, and we all want to stay open. Come eat 🙏.
