Experience in working within a busy, independent café / coffee shop is highly desirable, But what’s equally important is you as a person. It’s a small team who need to work well together, and do what is needed to keep our customers happy and our high standards of customer service maintained. It gets very busy too so someone who is able to work well under pressure is going to be key.
We are a fun bunch with a very strong and loyal local community of customers. We’re proud of what we do, and want to continue to deliver great tasting food and coffee with a smile on our faces. So if you think this is you then please apply.
(We are currently changing into a micro bakery, so a lot of small refurbishments will be happening time to time and love to have someone wanting to see the café grow while working here)
