Job Overview
When you walk up the three old-village steps into our aroma-filled alcove, what you are entering is as much laboratory as it is coffee shop.
We’re experimenting with new ways of using aroma to delight; we’re experimenting with new approaches to charity; and we’re experimenting with new ways to elevate the sense of purpose in human enterprise.
The goal of this experimentation is to have fun and create joy while also trying to learn, and perhaps move us all a step, or three old-village ones, upward. We’d love your help.

We are seeking a skilled barista to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a passion for customer service and creating delicious beverages in a fast-paced environment.

At PortRush Coffee, we craft a premium coffee experience. We roast our specialty beans in small batches on-site every morning. Our unique method blends beans at peak degassing with freshly roasted ones, ensuring fresh, vibrant flavor in every cup.

Explore our menu's dedicated section for Fresh Roasted Today beans and brews, available daily after 6 am.

Experience the freshness at PortRush!
