🎉 Three Weeks to Go!

Our incredible trainees are just three weeks away from completing their Certificate I in Hospitality — and we couldn’t be prouder of how far they’ve come.

If you know anyone looking for entry‑level hospitality or customer service staff, please consider sharing this post or passing our details on. These trainees have worked hard, built real skills, and are eager for their next step.

We’re also preparing for our next traineeship intake, commencing April 2026 (date to be confirmed). If you know someone who’d love a supportive start in hospitality, this could be the perfect opportunity.

📩 To register interest for the next traineeship, or to let us know about any job opportunities our current trainees may be eligible for, please email us at:

Your support helps open real doors for people building confidence, skills, and a brighter future. 💙

🥗 A Little Update From Us 🥪

You might have noticed our coffee truck and vans are no longer out and about — but we’re still here to keep you catered for in a new way.

📍Our 2nd Shot Canteen at Toowoomba TAFE (100 Bridge Street) offers catering, and we’d love to support your next meeting, event, or community gathering.

If you’d like a copy of our catering menu and info on how to order and collect, just send us a DM with your email address, and we’ll send it through.

Thanks for nearly 10 years of supporting our truck and vans for so many different local events. 🙏 We are excited about this new chapter for our service and hope you are too. 🥰
