You’ll work with a solid kitchen team who know how to get the job done, back each other, and still have a laugh when things get hectic. From prep to pass, it’s hands-on, fast-paced and never boring.
The Grand Hotel is located in Frankston, the gateway to the Mornington Peninsula.
Featuring a family friendly bistro, great service and a relaxed atmosphere, making it the perfect dining experience for all to enjoy.
