Sommelier

CODA is a new 40 seat neighbourhood wine bar and café opening soon in Chermside, and we're building something special Inspired by the easy rhythm of Italian bars, CODA is a place to gather and enjoy simple pleasures and sometimes indulge in something special, delivered by people who love what they do.

By day, our menu offers fresh, deli-style bites, light meals and house-baked treats; by early evening, it evolves into thoughtful seasonal dishes made for sharing and grazing. With more than 30 wines available by the glass, alongside a curated list of cocktails and spirits, CODA is about celebrating both the everyday and the extraordinary.

We're creating a venue where staff are valued and guests feel at home, whether it's your morning coffee, a quick midweek lunch or dinner, a night out with friends and family, one of our special events, or a champagne toast to life's milestones. And we're looking for team members who want to be part of shaping that experience from the very beginning.
