Well done Hugh! Brilliant news 🍎
We want to give a very special shout-out to Hugh, who has completed his entire chef apprenticeship here at Elleker Store & Tavern and has now stepped up into the role of Head Chef!
Hugh’s journey with us is something we’re incredibly proud of. We’ve had the privilege of watching him grow from an apprentice learning the ropes into a talented, confident chef who now leads our kitchen.
Completing an apprenticeship takes commitment, patience, hard work and a willingness to learn, and Hugh has put in the time and effort to get where he is today. To see someone begin their journey with us and work their way up to leading the kitchen is something truly special.
Hugh, thank you for your hard work, dedication and everything you bring to our team. We genuinely appreciate the effort you’ve put in over the years, the skills you’ve developed and the role you now play at Elleker Store & Tavern. Having someone who has grown with us take on this responsibility means a lot, and we couldn’t be happier to see you take this next step.
And what better way to celebrate than to give everyone a little taste of what’s to come! 👀🍽️
Here’s a sneak peek at a dish from our NEW menu, created by Hugh himself, coming soon for the reopening of the tavern! We’re excited for everyone to see what he’s been working on and can’t wait to welcome you all back to enjoy what’s in store.
We’re incredibly proud of you, Hugh, and grateful to have you as part of the Elleker Store & Tavern family. Here’s to the next chapter, new challenges and plenty of great food to come!
Congratulations, Hugh — you’ve earned it!
Keep your eyes peeled… the reopening is getting closer! 🍻
