GOOD PEOPLE MAKE GREAT HOSPITALITY.
At Floriditas and Loretta, we’re more than colleagues. We’re a team built on generosity, kindness and pride in the craft of hospitality. From the kitchen to the dining room, everyone plays a part in creating the warm, lively atmosphere our guests return for again and again.
Our culture is positive, supportive and built to help people thrive.
A PLACE TO GROW.
A culture of generosity
At Floriditas and Loretta we believe great workplaces are built on generosity with knowledge, encouragement and support. We work hard, but we also look after one another. Our team environment is positive, respectful and collaborative. Many of our staff stay for years because the culture genuinely matters here.
Sharing in success
We believe that when the restaurant does well, everyone should benefit. Our open-book management approach means the team understands how the business works, and when we hit our targets there is a weekly profit-share incentive. Everyone is part of the bigger picture.
Coaching and mentorship
Our General Manager Hayden McMillan works closely with the team to support individual development. That means regular one-on-one coaching, clear feedback and opportunities to grow into new roles or responsibilities.

two restaurants.
one standard.
Floriditas has been part of Cuba Street since 2005. A grand café in the European tradition, known for exceptional food, a remarkable wine list, and an atmosphere that feels like it's been here forever. It's the kind of place that locals are fiercely proud of.
Loretta is the younger sister. More casual, more vegetable-forward, with a global palate and an energy all herown. Same standard of hospitality. Different mood entirely.
Both venues are owned and led by the same four partners: Julie Clark, James Pedersen, Hayden McMillan, and Dominique Fourie. People who've been in this industry long enough to know exactly what a great workplace looks like and who are committed to building one.
JOIN THE FLORIDITAS TEAM.
Floriditas has been part of Wellington’s rhythm since 2005. Some of our team stay for years, others join us while building their hospitality journey.
If you care about great food, thoughtful service and being part of a supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.
