Now Hiring
Experienced Bartender
About us:
Pholklore is where big flavours meet good vibes. From Torquay to Geelong, Lorne, Caloundra and now Ocean Grove, our venues bring people together over steaming bowls of pho, fresh salads, share plates, cocktails, and cold beers.
While we’re a team who try not to take too much seriously (except when we’re making a bowl of pho), we’re all about creating memorable dining experiences that keep our customers coming back.
We’re casual, fast-paced, and community-minded — and if you love food, fun, and creating great experiences, you’ll love working at Pholklore.
