About us:

Stono Market originated in 1987 as a Farmer's Market to sell produce and seafood harvested by the Ambrose Family. The Tomato Shed Cafe was created to take advantage of the abundance of fresh ingredients and to minimize waste. First, aiming to feed the hungry employees of the nearby tomato packing sheds then growing to feeding nearly 300 meals a day in a single lunch service. Now we want to start serving supper again. We are seeking someone with the same passions of our founding. Someone that is creative, enjoys utilizing fresh and local proteins and produce, meanwhile minimizing waste. Stono Market and Tomato Shed Cafe offers a unique, laid back, southern atmosphere.

Our desired candidate:

Our ideal Chef/Cook addition will also be unique and laid back, coupled with other qualities like being goal-driven, focused, organized, proactive and charismatic. The chosen candidate will be a skilled, seasoned professional that aims to benefit the business, is enthusiastic about their work, and possesses superb work ethic. Since our beginnings were from farming and not restauranting, our structure is also very different. Promoting a united FOH and BOH, tips are split between the chef/cook, line cook and servers. We find that pooling and splitting tips stimulates the team to meet a common goal - customer satisfaction.
