What it’s like to work in a Bar and Waiting job at Harvester
Imagine this: you’re on shift, and it’s buzzing, people laughing, plates clinking, the sound of pints being poured.
You’re right in the middle of it all, serving up delicious meals, making sure guests are well taken care of, and throwing in a few extra smiles for good measure. Sounds like fun, right? That's the Harvester vibe.
At Harvester, we’re all about fresh food and feel-good family moments. From flame-grilled favourites to unlimited salad bars, we make every visit something special.
Working in a bar or waiting role here means more than just taking orders. You’re the face of the restaurant, the one who makes a guest’s day a little brighter, whether it's with a cheeky recommendation, a friendly chat, or just making sure their drink never runs dry. It’s all about creating an experience that feels as warm and welcoming as the food on the plate.
And let’s not forget the team. There’s nothing better than working with a crew that’s got your back, whether it’s during a crazy dinner rush or when you’re serving up a big celebration. You’ll quickly become part of the Harvester family, and trust us, that makes every shift a little more fun.
So, if you like working in a place where no two days are the same, and every shift feels like you’re making a difference, Harvester’s front of house is the place for you!
