Cocktail Bartender - New opening - Dishoom Permit Room - Portebello Road, London
We are proud to be recognised as one of the best places to work in Hospitality. Looking after people is at the core of what we do and we work hard to make life at Dishoom the best it can be. Since 2010, our restaurants have celebrated the Irani cafes and all of the food and drink of Bombay. We have locations across London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham and our Bar-Cafes in Brighton, Cambridge and Oxford.
As well as running busy sites with big teams, we also understand the importance of doing more. From planting trees with our teams in the UK & India, to our dedication to helping to feed children through Meal for a Meal. As of January 2024, we have donated 20 million meals (and counting) to children in the UK and India. As a Dishoomwalle, you contribute 55 meals per shift to this cause.
We're opening a Dishoom Permit Room on Portebello Road, London later this spring!
We’re on the lookout for big-hearted people with a first-class approach to service, who share our love of Bombay food, culture, and hospitality.
