Job Description

You'll look after tables at a sports bar and grill in George, from the first greeting to the final bill. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The work is in George, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

The work, day to day

  • Explain specials, allergens and wine pairings in plain words.
  • Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
  • Set tables, polish cutlery and glasses, and check condiments before doors open.
  • Check back two minutes after mains land and fix problems on the spot.
  • Clear, wipe and reset tables fast during the Friday and Sunday rush.
  • Carry plates to the right seat without auctioning food at the table.

You'll need

  • At least 6 months of waitering, bar or coffee shop experience
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests
  • You can stand and walk for a full 8-hour shift
  • Quick with basic maths and card machines
  • Own transport or a safe way home after late shifts
  • Happy to work nights, weekends and public holidays

Nice if you have

  • A second language such as isiZulu, isiXhosa or Afrikaans
  • Wine knowledge from a WSET Level 1 or wine farm stint

What's in it for you

  • Paid menu and wine tastings so you can sell with confidence
  • Staff meal on every shift
  • Uniform supplied and laundered

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

  • Recruiters ask about a difficult table, so have one real story ready about how you turned it around.
  • Walk in with your CV between 2pm and 4pm when managers have time, not during lunch or dinner service.
