Job Description

Good service at a wine farm restaurant in Isando starts with you: friendly, quick and on top of every order. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

Home base is a wine farm restaurant on the Isando side of Gauteng. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What your day looks like

  • Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
  • Restock the bar fridges and help with the weekly stock count.
  • Greet guests, seat them and hand over menus within a minute of arrival.
  • Explain specials, allergens and wine pairings in plain words.
  • Mix cocktails, pour draught and serve shooters to spec at the bar.

What you need

  • Happy to work nights, weekends and public holidays
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric is a plus
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests
  • You can stand and walk for a full 8-hour shift
  • Own transport or a safe way home after late shifts
  • Neat grooming and a friendly manner under pressure

Helpful, not essential

  • A barista course certificate or latte-art skills
  • A second language such as isiZulu, isiXhosa or Afrikaans

What's in it for you

  • Paid menu and wine tastings so you can sell with confidence
  • Late-shift lift home within a set radius
  • Staff meal on every shift
