A native of Greensboro, NC, Josh Doepke started his journey in the restaurant industry as a dishwasher. When he moved to Atlanta, he worked as a line cook at Emeril’s before making the move to the front of the house as a server at Atlanta Fish Market. During his time in management at Sauced, Rathbun’s and Reverence at Epicurean Atlanta, Josh learned how to develop a team and tailor training to each individual. His eye for detail and willingness to dive in made him a perfect fit for Operations Manager at Local Three. As wild as restaurants can be, Josh’s strangest job was when he was paid to hug hammered redneck women at Charlotte Motor Speedway during race days while dressed as the Pink Panther. When he isn’t working, Josh loves gaming on his PS5 and daydreaming about owning a 1964 Lincoln Continental. His bucket list also includes riding a motorcycle all the way through Argentina.
