Job description

We are a bold, award-winning business proud to offer an eclectic range of innovative, fresh, and seasonal menus that impress our customers within an industry-leading environment. We run friendly, welcoming, and positive kitchens with high standards, always striving to be the best we can be. These high standards are maintained thanks to our team of great kitchen porters—the heartbeat of our kitchens—without whom we could not deliver!

We are looking for a Kitchen Porter to join our team.

Located on the historic Bristol harbourside, The Ostrich boasts a large pub garden and cozy interiors over two floors. The newly refurbished ‘Top Deck’ dining space and bar offer stunning views over the harbour and are available for private hire. Please note, tables in the Top Deck bar are bookable; outside seating is first-come, first-served.

Our menu celebrates traditional British pub classics and seasonal, local produce, featuring exciting small plates, sharing boards, famous pies, and bar snacks. On Sundays, enjoy Bristol’s best roasts and our signature sharing pies.

Our bar offers award-winning Butcombe beers and an extensive rum selection, reflecting The Ostrich’s roots as a dockside inn where sailors, merchants, and dock-workers once drank.
