HomeGrown is different from any other restaurant job. We’ve taken the idea of everyday kindness and made it a part of everything we do.

The Schedule: Off by at least 3:30pm every day you work.

The Pay and Benefits: Making the same or better pay than traditional restaurant gigs, plus paid-time off, vision, dental and medical for full-time team members.

The Culture: A work environment characterized by kindness, a welcoming spirit, teamwork, and personal development.

If all that sounds desirable to you -- come join our team at HomeGrown: A Daytime Eatery. We’ll be Des Moines' hottest and busiest breakfast/brunch place! We can’t wait to show the good people of Des Moines what a great breakfast/brunch experience is all about!

At HomeGrown, we believe in ‘Local when it’s better’ - so we seek out and partner with local food purveyors, dairy farmers, bee hivers, etc. who share our commitment to freshness, quality, and community! And we do it all while Cultivating Kindness - with the basic idea that being considerate, polite, and NICE matters just as much as serving great eggs and tasty bacon…

And HomeGrown is more than just Des Moines; we’ve been around since 2017 and already have several locations.

We are part of Thrive Restaurant Group, a family-owned restaurant company that’s been in business for over 50 years. We are committed to making a difference in the lives of the people we serve and the communities in which we live. If you want to work in a fun, family atmosphere and are interested in learning business, leadership, and hospitality, HomeGrown is the place for you. And… you’ll be home by 3:30 pm!
