About the role
Barista / Cashier / Prep Cook – Daily Sprouts CaféDaily Sprouts Café, a brand-new, health-focused coffee shop and bakery on the Upper East Side (163 East 92nd Street), is now hiring a passionate Barista / Cashier / Prep Cook to join our small, dedicated team! We're not your average café. Our menu features delicious breakfast and lunch staples made with organic ingredients and sprouted ancient grains — think house-baked "kindabread" (our take on Ezekiel-style sprouted bread), fresh tortas, banana bread, and more — all prepared daily in-house for real nutrition and bold flavor.
What we're looking for:
- At least some prior experience in a coffee shop, café, bakery, or fast-casual food environment (barista, cashier, line/prep work)
- Enthusiasm for food, wellness, and customer service
- Ability to explain our unique concept confidently and eloquently to curious customers
- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a natural sense of cleanliness/neatness
- Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-energy setting
- Positive attitude, reliability, and a genuine love for creating memorable customer experiences
What you'll do:
- Prepare and serve specialty coffee drinks
- Handle cash/register transactions with accuracy and warmth
- Assist with food prep, baking support, and daily kitchen tasks
- Greet customers, share our story, and build connections
- Maintain a spotless, welcoming environment
This is a part-time position to start (flexible hours, including weekends), with excellent potential to transition to full-time as we grow.
If you're excited about healthy, honest food and want to be part of launching something fresh and meaningful on the Upper East Side, we'd love to hear from you!

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
