About the Role

Team members handle a mix of counter, bar support, and cleaning tasks depending on the shift and staffing needs. This role is designed for people who want part-time income now without needing to already know how a café works.

What You Will Do

  • Welcome customers at the counter, take orders with accuracy, and process payments using the POS system
  • Support the bar team by filling to-go cups, labeling orders, and organizing the drink handoff area
  • Prepare simple hot and cold beverages including drip coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and packaged cold drinks
  • Clear and clean tables, sweep floors, and empty trash bins to maintain a welcoming dining area throughout the shift
  • Restock customer-facing areas including the condiment station, pastry case, and retail display
  • Run food and drinks to seated customers when the café operates table service
  • Support closing or opening procedures as assigned by the shift supervisor
  • Ask for help and guidance from your supervisor whenever something is unclear — that is what training shifts are for

What You Need

  • No previous experience required — this is a genuine entry-level role with full training provided
  • Consistent availability for at least 2 – 3 shifts per week
  • Good attitude and team spirit — the best café team members lift the energy of everyone around them
  • Physical ability to stand, walk, and lift light supply items for a 4 – 5 hour shift
  • Punctuality — showing up on time is the most important thing a team member can do
  • Must be 16 or older to apply

Nice to Have

  • Any prior customer service, retail, or food experience
  • Basic familiarity with how café drinks are made — not required, but you will pick things up faster

What We Offer

  • Flexible scheduling — we build the shift calendar around your availability
  • Paid training — you earn while you learn from your very first shift
  • A supportive team where asking questions is encouraged and growth is recognized
  • Paid sick leave per applicable law
