Job Description
Barbarian is a new restaurant that is opening at the end of June in Stowe, VT. We will serve breakfast and dinner seven days a week.

When it comes to hiring, we're looking for people who are optimistic, detail oriented, and want to be part of a team. Our employees should always be learning and growing from their experiences here to prepare them for whatever the future might bring.
