Pastry Chef / Cook

Welcome to Fox Coffee. We’ve been roasting and serving fresh coffee since 2016.

What’s that got to do with Bakery / Patisserie?

Food has always been a (small but) important part of our offering, but it’s about to become a BIG part of what we do.

We’re building a Bakery and expanding our offering into Italian pastries (cornetto, brioche, filled focaccia, doughnuts), and looking for the right person to work with our small (but expanding!) team.
