Restaurant volunteering is perfect for travelers who enjoy food, hospitality and meeting people. On this page, you can find work exchange and volunteer positions in restaurants, cafÃĐs, bars, guesthouses and eco resorts around the world. Many of these hosts offer free accommodation, meals and the chance to learn new recipes in exchange for a few hours of help in the kitchen or front of house.
Restaurant volunteering can include simple kitchen tasks, serving guests, helping with breakfast buffets, cleaning tables or supporting small family-run businesses with marketing and social media. Opportunities range from beach bars and vegan cafÃĐs to eco lodges in the mountains, so you can choose the environment that fits your travel style.
Browse the projects below and check what each host offers in return, how many hours are required and any specific skills they ask for. If you love cooking, food culture and connecting with locals, restaurant volunteering is a meaningful way to travel more slowly and support small businesses.
Voluntouring.org promotes opportunities rooted in cultural exchange and mutual learning.
Before applying, ask yourself: is this a fair exchange, or could it replace paid labour?
Choose consciously, ask questions, and make sure the experience is respectful, safe,
and aligned with your values. Always check visa requirementsâhosts cannot provide legal
work permits.
