Earn Extra Money. Learn New Skills. Keep Your Sundays Free.

Looking for a Great Saturday Job?

Want to pick up extra income without committing to a full workweek?

Interested in cooking and want to learn your way around a professional kitchen?

Or maybe you're an experienced restaurant employee who just wants one additional shift each week.

Hudson’s Restaurant & Catering is looking for dependable, energetic people to join our kitchen team on Saturdays only.

Whether you already have kitchen experience or you're interested in learning, we'd love to talk with you.

Why Saturdays at Hudson’s?

Saturday is one of our most exciting days of the week.

We start with Saturday brunch, transition into our regular lunch and dinner menu, and during our seasonal pop-ups, the restaurant takes on an entirely different energy.

You'll get the chance to experience different styles of restaurant service while working alongside an experienced culinary team.

And the best part?

We're closed Sundays.

Work Saturday, make some extra money, and your Sunday is still yours.

A Great Opportunity for...

• Culinary students looking for hands-on experience
• High school or college students looking for weekend work
• Experienced cooks who want an additional weekly shift
• People with weekday jobs looking for extra income
• Home cooks interested in learning professional techniques
• Anyone considering a career in restaurants or hospitality
• Former restaurant employees who miss the kitchen but don't want a full-time commitment

Experience is welcome—but it's not required for every position.

We'll find the right responsibilities based on your experience and what you're interested in learning.

More Than Just an Extra Shift

Hudson’s is a teaching kitchen.

Our owners and management team bring more than 90 years of combined culinary experience, and we believe in sharing that knowledge with people who want to learn.

Depending on your experience and interests, you may have opportunities to learn:

• Basic food preparation
• Knife skills
• Brunch production
• Grill, sauté, fry, and other stations
• Proper mise en place
• Plating and presentation
• High-volume kitchen organization
• Catering and event production
• Food safety and sanitation
• Professional kitchen workflow

If you're interested in cooking, Saturday can be a great place to start.

Already an Experienced Cook?

We'd like to hear from you, too.

If you already know your way around a professional kitchen and want to pick up one solid shift each week, we can put your experience to work.

Jump onto a station, help us through busy Saturday service, make some extra money, and head home knowing you don't have to come back Sunday morning.

Creativity Is Encouraged

We don't believe all the good ideas have to come from management.

Our kitchen team contributes ideas for weekly specials and seasonal menus, giving cooks an opportunity to be creative and learn from one another.

If you love food and have ideas, we want to hear them.

Saturday at Hudson’s

Our restaurant is open:

Brunch | 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Regular Menu | 12:00 PM – 9:00 PM

Saturday kitchen schedules will vary depending on the position and our needs—you won't necessarily be working the entire day.

And remember: Hudson’s is CLOSED SUNDAYS.
