Join our Team at The Bistro & Thyme to Cater

The Opportunity

Do you enjoy coffee, connecting with people, and making someone’s day a little better? We’re looking for friendly, dependable baristas who bring positive energy, a strong work ethic, and genuine hospitality to every shift. Our baristas do more than prepare handcrafted espresso drinks: they welcome guests, help with café food service, and work together to keep the Bistro running smoothly. We can teach coffee skills; we’re looking first for people who care about doing a great job.

What You’ll Do

• Welcome guests warmly, answer menu questions, and provide attentive, efficient service.
• Prepare espresso beverages, coffee, and other specialty drinks accurately and consistently using our recipes and standards.
• Take orders and payments using the point-of-sale system; coordinate orders with the kitchen and beverage stations.
• Assist with serving and packaging breakfast, lunch, pastries, and grab-and-go items.
• Keep workstations, equipment, café supplies, and guest areas clean, stocked, and organized.
• Follow food-safety, sanitation, opening/closing, and cash-handling procedures.
• Support teammates during busy periods and help create a welcoming guest experience.

What We’re Looking For

A friendly, upbeat, service-oriented attitude and genuine enjoyment of working with people.

Dependability, punctuality, initiative, and a willingness to learn and accept feedback.

Ability to stay organized, work efficiently, and remain courteous in a fast-paced environment.

Coffee, café, or food-service experience is a plus, but not required for the right candidate.

Schedule & Work Environment

Full-time and part-time opportunities. Applicants must have flexible availability. We offer the following shift times:

• Opening shifts begin at 5:00 a.m.
• Mid shifts may include 7-2, 8-3, 9-3, 10-4, etc. 
• Closing shifts may include 2-9pm, 3-9pm, or 4-9 pm. 
• Shift lengths generally range from 4 to 8 hours; schedules may include weekdays and weekends based on business needs.

This is an active, guest-facing position requiring extended periods of standing, frequent movement, and routine handling of café supplies and equipment, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Why Join Us?

We’re a locally owned and operated European-influenced café and catering team that values hospitality, teamwork, consistency, and pride in our work.
