Crumbs Bakery + Cafe is an independent artisan bakery with two busy cafés in Hertfordshire.
We make our sourdough, pastries, cakes and sandwiches from scratch, serve seriously good coffee, and believe that great hospitality is about much more than taking an order.
We’re now looking for several brilliant Baristas to join our Front of House teams.
We have multiple positions available in Watton-at-Stone and one position in Bishop’s Stortford.
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for people who are warm, energetic and genuinely enjoy looking after customers.
You will:
- Make consistently excellent coffee
- Welcome customers and make them feel looked after
- Learn our products and confidently recommend them
- Keep our counters beautiful, full and inviting
- Serve food and prepare sandwiches to Crumbs standards
- Keep the café clean, organised and ready for the next customer
- Notice what needs doing without always waiting to be asked
- Support your teammates when things get busy
- Follow excellent food hygiene and allergen procedures
Barista experience is strongly preferred, but attitude matters enormously to us. If you’re great with people, hardworking and genuinely interested in coffee, we can develop your skills.
You’ll probably love working at Crumbs if…
- You remember a regular customer’s coffee
- You notice the table that needs clearing
- You care whether a flat white leaves the machine beautifully
- You help a colleague who’s suddenly got ten orders
- And you like working somewhere where customers and colleagues actually know your name
- We’re busy, and we work hard. But we want Crumbs to be a place where nice people do excellent work with other nice people
What we offer
- Pay per hour from £12.71
- Full barista and product training
- Genuine opportunities to progress to Shift Supervisor and future management roles
- Free food and drinks during your shift
- Free Crumbs bread and pastries to take home.
- Staff discount
- Company pension
- Birthday gift
- Staff events
- Free parking
- A small independent company where good work gets noticed
For the right person, this can be much more than simply another barista job.
