JOIN THE LINE
We're hiring
a cook.
You in?
Boomtown is the beer-garden-with-burritos at 950 Yates in downtown Victoria — California burrito DNA, Pacific Northwest sourcing, a patio that runs all year, and a room that hums every night. We just brought on a new chef with Michelin-star kitchen experience, and we're rebuilding the line around what good food and a good time can look like in the same room.

The room
you'd be cooking in.
A Pacific Northwest beer garden with California burrito DNA at 950 Yates. Snacks, lighter meals, weekly features, and a breakfast burrito worth showing up early for. The kitchen is the centerpiece — visible, fast, and somehow calm under pressure.
THE FOOD
California burrito tradition, modernized.
Snacks, bowls, breakfast burritos, weekly features.
Cross-cultural without apology.
Boom Sauce on everything that earns it.
How to apply.
THE EVENTS

Themed nights and block parties.
You cook them. You're also at them.
THE TEAM

We watch out for each other. We promote from inside.
Send us your resume and a short note about where you've cooked and why this room sounds like yours. We'll read both.
