Job Overview

Line Cook

Join the Kitchen Team at Cornerstone Pub and Prime

This isn't just another kitchen job.
Cornerstone Pub & Prime has become one of the area's busiest and fastest-growing restaurants because we're obsessed with one thing: delivering an incredible experience every single time someone walks through our doors.
We're known for great food, consistency, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together. Around here, there isn't a "front of house vs. back of house" mentality. We're one team with one goal: giving every guest a reason to come back.
If you take pride in your work, love staying busy, and want to be part of something that's growing, we'd love to meet you.

Why Cornerstone?

• Be part of one of the fastest-growing restaurants in the area
• Over 30% sales growth in 2026 despite a challenging restaurant market
• A fun, positive culture where people enjoy coming to work
• Flexible scheduling
• Paid training
• Employee discounts
• Holiday parties and team events
• State Fair ticket giveaways and other team perks
• Closed on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day
• Opportunities to grow as our company continues to expand

What You'll Do

• Prepare high-quality meals with consistency and attention to detail
• Cook burgers, sandwiches, pastas, flatbreads, appetizers, and more
• Work fryers, grills, and other kitchen equipment
• Follow food safety and sanitation standards
• Keep your station clean, organized, and stocked
• Communicate with teammates and help wherever needed
• Learn weekly specials and menu updates
• Maintain speed without sacrificing quality

Who We're Looking For

The perfect Cornerstone cook is someone who:

• Shows up on time—every shift
• Is self-motivated and doesn't need to be reminded to work
• Takes pride in every plate that leaves the kitchen
• Pays attention to the little details
• Stays organized, clean, and efficient
• Wants to learn and improve every day
• Works well with others and treats teammates with respect
• Thrives in a fast-paced environment
• Brings a positive attitude even during busy shifts

Restaurant experience is preferred, but not required. We'd rather hire someone with a great attitude who's willing to learn than someone with years of experience who isn't a team player.

Our Standards

We're proud of the culture we've built, and we work hard to protect it.
A few things are non-negotiable:

• Be on time.
• Treat your coworkers with respect.
• Complete every task honestly and thoroughly.
• Take ownership of your work.
• Leave the kitchen better than you found it.

We believe accountability builds trust, and trust builds great teams.

Scheduling

We offer both full-time and part-time positions.
Weekend availability is required.
Our busiest seasons—including October events, the Cornerstone Christmas Experience, and holidays—are all hands on deck, so limited time off is available during those periods.

Compensation

Pay: $16.00–$20.00 per hour, based on experience, with opportunities for performance-based raises.
If you're looking for more than just another kitchen job and want to be part of a team that's building something special, we'd love to meet you.
