About the role
We make almost everything from scratch, so this is a role for a Chef de Partie who has experience working with fresh ingredients and a love for preparing quality dishes.
Join us at Metro Pubs, where our pubs are at the heart of city life, striving to provide a home away from home for both locals and visitors to the capital alike. All of our pubs are individual and unbranded, each embodying its own personality and character. We’re the place to laugh with friends, to spend quality time with family, and to enjoy all that is great about a community pub – the food, the drink, the service, and the atmosphere.
