Tea Room Assistant Nottingham, England
Job description
Company description
Biscuit & Brew is a family-owned tea house in Nottingham city centre. With a passion for loose leaf tea, all of our blends are our own and are inspired by anything from sweets, desserts & cocktails to books, moods or our favourite time of day. We've even got blends that taste like music!
We bake all our own cakes, scones, brownies, blondies & biscuits. All of our food and drinks are put together by hand, fresh to order. We source our ingredients from the best local suppliers. We think there is a fine line between novelty and nostalgia and that our menu makes a good effort to tread it (try Spice Girl and you'll see what we mean!). We think good service starts with a proper smile and that proper smiles come with good service.
What you'll do
On a typical day you will greet customers with a warm welcome, take their orders, prepare hot and cold drinks from simple teas and coffees to more complex tea mocktails and milkshakes, serve food freshly prepared in our kitchen, pack up online tea orders, take payments with some cash handling and most importantly, initiating and maintaining strong, genuine relationships with our customers.
You are
A warm, friendly people person, able to initiate and maintain a conversation with someone you don't know
Level headed & Responsible
Excellent problem solver
Self-motivated and hard-working
