Supervisor/Duty Manager (Sailing For Oranges)

About the venue…

The crew behind beloved dumpling eatery Emily Taylor have opened a new Mediterranean-inspired bar and kitchen along Freo’s iconic cappuccino strip, and we are fully committed to making Sailing For Oranges a mainstay in Freo’s dining scene.

The service is very laidback and casual, with an expansive shaded deck area with plenty of tables for walk-ins as well as a stunning upstairs function space perfect for bigger events.

The menu is thoughtfully crafted by Executive Chef Danny Feng (formerly at Hearth and Wildflower), the menu echos cruisy Mediterranean vibes with heavy Spanish and Portuguese influence throughout—all backed by super fresh local produce and quality meats, dried and cured by our in-house butcher.

Just like Emily Taylor, Sailing For Oranges takes its namesake from a ship—this time one that brought free Spanish immigrants to Fremantle in the 1850s. The story goes that it was so hot they took one of the sails down and turned it into a swimming pool where they sat and enjoyed oranges. They were the happiest settlers to arrive in Freo, and we are hoping that same spirit will flow through to the venue's guests.

Opening hours are from 7am to 1am so we can offer a variety of hours in both full time and casual roles.
