A good head for detail -- whether that's service standards, stock rotation, or the perfect espresso.

Why Join The Lions' Den

We're a community. You'll be part of a passionate team creating something special in the City: a welcoming space where good coffee, great people, and positive energy come together.

If you're ready to make your mark on an exciting new venue, we'd love to hear from you.
