Three Bear Restaurant, in West Yellowstone, Montana is looking for experienced Line Cooks, both AM and PM shifts. We are looking for a full time seasonal (through October), but would prefer a year round line cook (with seasonal closures, see below). Must not have any baggage or substance issues, and must have a clean record and good work references. Absolutely must be able to communicate in a respectful manner with other staff and take directions from the executive chef.
Three Bear Lodge & Restaurant is one of the most well-known businesses in West Yellowstone, Montana. Since the early 1930s, Three Bear has grown to accommodate both the locals and the visitors to Yellowstone National Park. As a seasonal business, the restaurant is closed for about 3 months (mid-March through April, and then again from November through mid-December) during which time vacations can be taken.
West Yellowstone has a resident population of about 1,200 people with a medical clinic, public school and library. West Yellowstone has long winters with lots of snow. While most things are available in town, the larger shopping areas are Bozeman - 90 miles, Rexburg - 84 miles and Idaho Falls - 110 miles. The roads are well-maintained for winter driving. Situated at the West Gate of Yellowstone, the area is an outdoor enthusiast's dream! Recreate when not working by fly-fishing, hiking and camping, snowmobiling, skiing, and a long list of other activities.
Three Bear Restaurant can seat 125 people, and is well maintained with an elegant rustic log décor. It also includes an intimate lounge with a full bar. The kitchen includes a 3-person line including broiler, grill and deep fry stations. We only serve breakfast and dinner and are closed for lunch! As a seasonal restaurant, summer is our high volume season (May-Oct). We also have a solid winter season (Dec 15 – March 15). We are closed for about 3 months of the year.
Limited employee housing is available, but not required. Currently, a studio apartment with utilities provided is included for $500 month! It is subsidized in pricing, making it affordable for full time employees!
We are interested in someone who is willing to invest time and talent into a long-term position.
All facets of restaurant cooking is desired, but not required. Must be willing to work breakfast and dinner, with the majority of your experience in dinner. Must have a friendly personality and the ability to work well with others.
We do not need individuals with substance abuse issues, anger management challenges, or are comfortable with blowing shifts!
