Chef De Partie
About us:
Located in the heart of the charming fishing village of Appledore, The Seagate offers an inspiring place to work just moments from the stunning South West Coast Path and fresh Atlantic sea air.
We’re looking for passionate chefs to join our team, creating hearty, high-quality dishes that welcome guests back after a day exploring the coastline. From busy summer evenings serving on our beautiful sea-view terrace to cosy winter services by a roaring fire, no two days are the same.
At The Seagate, you’ll be part of a kitchen team that celebrates great British food, local produce, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere—for both our guests and their four-legged companions. If you take pride in your craft and thrive in a vibrant coastal setting, we’d love to hear from you.
Being a CDP at Young's:
We believe every pub should have its own identity. As part of the kitchen team, you’ll contribute to developing recipes that reflect the food vision of both the business and the Head Chef, using fresh, seasonal ingredients.
Each pub has its own focus — whether that’s celebrating local produce, classic country pub dishes, seafood, small plates and sharing plates, or expertly prepared dry-aged meats. Your ideas and experience will play an important role in shaping the dishes we serve to our guests.
Because we work with fresh, seasonal produce, our menus evolve throughout the year to showcase ingredients at their very best. Our goal is simple: premium, freshly prepared food created by skilled chefs in premium pubs.
