Prep / Line Cook

Mighty Bread Company is a James Beard nominated retail bakery with a café in East Passyunk and another location in Rittenhouse. We are looking for a prep / line cook to add to our growing team.

Are you a cook looking for a reasonable schedule, benefits, and a fun, non-toxic work environment?? Join our passionate, hardworking team as we take our beloved neighborhood cafe and bakery to the next level.

This position is full time. We are a very busy restaurant. Some days are dedicated prep shifts and some days are shifts on the line. We need an all-stations cook and yes, we’re talking brunch. If you have experience in this area that’s a plus but it is not required.
