Line Chef/ Grill Chef

Line Chef / Chef de Partie – Daffodil, Cardiff

Fresh Food • Welsh Produce • Weekly Specials • Cardiff’s No.1 Sunday Roast

Daffodil is one of Cardiff’s most popular restaurants and gastro pubs — established five years ago and now known city‑wide for fresh cooking, local Welsh suppliers, and the number one Sunday roast in Cardiff. We’re now looking for a skilled, motivated Line Chef/CDP to join our kitchen team as we continue to grow.

About the Role

We’re a fresh‑food venue through and through, so we’re looking for a chef with strong experience in busy, quality‑led kitchens. You’ll work closely with the Head Chef and Sous Chef on daily service, weekly specials, and seasonal menu development. This is a role for a chef who wants to cook, learn, and progress.

Microwave technicians need not apply.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Running your section confidently during busy services

  • Delivering top‑quality Sunday roasts every week

  • Helping deliver our brunch and daytime menu (breakfast & sandwiches until 3pm)

  • Driving consistency and quality across the a la carte menu from 3pm onwards

  • Assisting with weekly specials showcasing creativity and Welsh produce

  • Following prep systems, stock rotation and maintaining kitchen organisation

  • Supporting junior chefs and contributing to a positive kitchen culture

  • Taking pride in fresh cooking and high standards every day

What We’re Looking For

  • Minimum 2–3 years’ experience in a fresh‑food venue

  • Proven experience as a Line Chef/CDP

  • Strong understanding of seasonal cooking and local sourcing

  • Creative flair with the ability to deliver consistent quality

  • A calm, organised chef who works clean and leads by example

  • Passion for developing skills and progressing within a strong kitchen team

  • Someone who wants to grow with the business

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary based on experience

  • Real input into specials and seasonal dishes

  • A respected, high‑performing venue with a strong identity

  • Supportive ownership and a clear progression pathway toward Senior CDP and Sous Chef

If you’re a chef who cares about fresh food, Welsh produce, and being part of an ambitious kitchen team, we’d love to hear from you.

Benefits

  • Discounted or free food

  • Employee discount

  • Store discount
