Bar / Restaurant Staff
up to £14.50 per hour*

 

We’re after real people with character. The kind of people who can chat to anyone, enjoy working as part of a team, and bring good energy to a shift. You don’t need years of experience, if you’ve got the right attitude, we can teach you the rest. We can show you how to carry three plates, pour the perfect pint, or handle a busy dinner service. What we can’t teach is how to be a good crack – and that’s what really matters here.

The Role Includes:

• Serving drinks – from pints and wines to cocktails and coffees
• Running food and looking after guests with warmth and confidence
• Being part of a tight-knit team that looks out for each other
• Helping keep the bar, restaurant, and terrace running smoothly
• Playing your part in creating a great experience, every time

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has experience in hospitality (preferred, but not essential)
• Knows how to graft when it gets busy, and still have a laugh
• Is reliable, friendly, and happy to get stuck in
• Brings good vibes, solid team spirit, and a sense of pride in the job

What You’ll Get in Return:

• Competitive pay (that grows with experience and effort)
• Fair tip share across the team
• Food and drink discounts
• A chance to grow with us; we promote from within
• A place in one of Ulverston’s busiest, friendliest venues

Benefits:

• Tips
• Company pension
  Discounted or free food
  Employee discount

Sous Chef
up to £40k per year*

 

We’re looking for a capable, level-headed Sous Chef, on a full-time basis, to help lead the kitchen. As Sous Chef, you’ll be supporting the Head Chef in managing the day-to-day running of the kitchen, setting the pace in service, helping train and guide the team, and keeping standards sharp across the board. We’re after someone who’s calm under pressure, confident with ordering and prep planning, and happy to lead by example on a busy pass.

If you’re ready to step up, lead from the front, and be part of a kitchen that actually runs well, this could be the move you’ve been waiting for. We’re not ticking boxes – we’re looking for the right fit.

What’s on offer: 

• Up to £40,000 depending on experience and attitude
• 4 on, 3 off – because rest matters as much as hard work
• Full holiday entitlement – no rolled-up hours or vague promises
• Involvement in menu development; we welcome ideas and creativity
• A stable, experienced kitchen team – no egos, no chaos
• Career progression – we’re part of a small, growing group and we reward the right people
• Accessible via bus route

Benefits:

• Tips
• Company pension
• Discounted or free food
• Employee discount

Chef de Partie
up to £34k per year*

 

We’re on the lookout for a strong, full-time Chef de Partie to join the team. This isn’t an entry-level position – we’re after someone who knows their way around a section, can hold their own in a busy service, and wants to be part of a team that actually works well together. You’ll be joining a solid group of chefs who care about what they’re putting on the plate and back each other up in the kitchen.

We’ve invested in our kitchen and our people. The place runs well because we all pull in the same direction. If you’re tired of chaotic kitchens, unrealistic expectations, or not getting your days off, this might just be a better fit.

What we’re offering:

• Up to £34,000 depending on experience and reliability
• 4 days on, 3 days off – giving you time to reset and come back sharp
• Full holiday entitlement
• Input on menus and specials – your ideas are welcome here
• Opportunities to progress within a growing group that rewards hard work and loyalty
• Accessible via bus route

Benefits:

• Tips
• Company pension
• Discounted or free food
• Employee discount
