“Ask where to go for breakfast in Whitefish and everyone will give you the same answer — The Buffalo Cafe. One morning we lingered there over coffee and pancakes for three hours. When we got up to leave, the waitress said, “Come back when you have more time to sit”

Employment
The Buffalo Café is always looking to add quality staff to our long-standing restaurant to help keep up with demand! We are proud to have ownership working on the floor hand in hand with our crew and we have a history of employee retention that has seen many of our crew stay with us for 5+ years…a few have been with us for over 10!
We offer very competitive wages, the opportunity to progress, free shift meals, guarantee 2 days off together, and generally have a great vibe that we feel helps the day go by smoothly. Once on our crew, there are benchmarks we can discuss further that will activate benefits such as 2 weeks of paid time off and the opportunity for a retirement matching program.
If you would be interested in submitting a resume for consideration, please email your resume and a bit about yourself to buffalocafewhitefish@gmail.com and we will reach out with more information. Thank you!!
