Line Cook – Kverneriet Tønsberg

Kverneriet started here in 2013. This is where the story began — a small burger place with big ambitions that grew into a chef-driven restaurant group. Now we need line cooks who want to be part of the original kitchen.

Why Tønsberg?

A harbour city with one of Norway's best summer seasons. Peak season runs May to mid-August — fast, full, and fun. The kitchen stays busy after that, but the rhythm opens up. More time to develop dishes, test ideas, and cook a broader menu.

Outside of work, you get a walkable city, the coast on your doorstep, and the kind of everyday ease that makes hospitality sustainable long-term.

Getting here is simple. TORP airport is 15 minutes away with direct flights across Europe. Trains connect to Oslo in just over an hour. Whether you're relocating from elsewhere in Norway or moving from abroad, Tønsberg is more accessible than most people expect.
