Ye Olde Yew Tree

About Ye Olde Yew Tree

At Ye Olde Yew Tree, we're passionate about serving exceptional food in one of Kent's oldest and most picturesque pubs. We believe that a great workplace starts with respect, teamwork and taking pride in what we do.

We're an independent, food-led business where quality comes before cutting corners. Our menus are built around fresh, locally sourced ingredients, with as much made in-house as possible. Every member of the team has the opportunity to contribute ideas and help us continually improve.

Our kitchen is busy but organised. We value professionalism, reliability and a positive attitude just as highly as technical ability. We support one another through busy services, communicate openly and celebrate success as a team.

As a growing business with ambitions to achieve an AA Rosette, we're looking for people who genuinely care about their craft and enjoy producing food to a consistently high standard. This is an environment where hard work is recognised, good ideas are welcomed, and you'll have the opportunity to develop your skills while helping shape the future of the business.

Whether you're leading a service or supporting the team, you'll be joining a workplace that takes pride in delivering memorable experiences for every guest while maintaining a healthy, respectful and enjoyable working atmosphere.

Workplace Culture

We're building more than just a successful pub - we're creating a place where talented people enjoy coming to work and are proud of what they achieve together.

Our culture is built on professionalism, mutual respect and teamwork. We believe that everyone, whether front or back of house, plays an equally important role in delivering an exceptional experience for our guests. We work hard, support one another during busy services and celebrate our successes as a team.

As an independent, food-led destination pub, quality is at the heart of everything we do. We prepare as much as possible from scratch, use fresh, locally sourced ingredients wherever we can, and never lose sight of the small details that make a memorable dining experience.

We encourage initiative and value people who take pride in their work. New ideas are welcomed, continuous improvement is part of our everyday mindset, and everyone has the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the future of the business.

We're ambitious, with a clear goal of achieving an AA Rosette, so we look for people who share our passion for great food, genuine hospitality and consistently high standards. At the same time, we believe that excellence comes from a positive working environment—one where people feel respected, trusted and able to develop their skills.

If you're looking for a workplace where your contribution matters, where quality is valued over shortcuts, and where you'll be part of a close-knit team working towards something exciting, Ye Olde Yew Tree is the place for you.
