Mari Groma kitchen team preparing seasonal dishes

About the work

Made here, served with care.

Mari Groma is an independent restaurant and bakery open five days a week for breakfast, lunch and weekend brunch. Our cooking is international in outlook, with a strong northern European influence.

The kitchen works with local, seasonal and responsibly sourced ingredients. Bread, pastries and dishes are prepared in-house, while service remains relaxed, attentive and informed.

We value curiosity, consistency and respect for both ingredients and colleagues. Experience is useful, but a willingness to learn and contribute thoughtfully matters too.
