We are proud to make all of our own breakfast meats (bacon, ham, sausage, etc.), breads (bagels, English muffins and so on) as well as butter, hot sauce, jam ... you name it.

We treat every job in the restaurant as a craft to be proud of and seek to create a positive, energetic work culture. We have an immediate opening for an experienced Baker to create all of our scratch-made breads, including bagels, English muffins, syrups and more! The ideal candidate will have a passion for baking, organized and self-motivated.
