Server

We are looking for a friendly, energetic, and genuinely people-oriented Server to join our team as we prepare for our upcoming busy season. For us, great service is about more than taking orders and delivering food. We are looking for someone who enjoys interacting with people, brings positive energy to the workplace, and genuinely cares about creating a welcoming experience for every guest.

The right person for this role is warm, approachable, attentive, and comfortable starting conversations with guests. A great personality, positive attitude, and willingness to learn are extremely important to us.

Previous serving experience is an asset, but it is not required. We are happy to train the right person. There is a lot to learn, including our menu, service standards, POS system, food and beverage knowledge, upselling, and daily restaurant procedures, so we are looking for someone who is motivated, engaged, and willing to put effort into learning the role.

This is an ongoing position and is best suited for someone seeking consistent, longer-term employment rather than short-term or seasonal work. 

If you enjoy working with people, take pride in what you do, and want to be part of a supportive hospitality team, we would love to hear from you.
