We are located just minutes from UMBC, the MARC station, Patapsco State Park, & the Guinness Brewery in downtown Arbutus. We are looking for one more industry stud or an up-and-coming star to be a part of our team as a cashier.

-Be the FOH Server, Cashier, & Barista (earn tips in addition to hourly)
-Help Line Cook

Required experience:
At least 3 years working in a full-service or fast casual restaurant (not fast food). Extra consideration will be given to those who've worked in top 50 restaurants or restaurants with outstanding reputation. Extra preference to people that have cafe experience.
Required education:
Must possess an immense passion for food and beverage. Extra consideration will be given to those that love to cook, eat out, watch the Food Network, post Insta-pics of food and drinks, home-brew, slam kombucha, or know the German beer purity law by heart.
Required skills:
You're going to have to be great. Being great with guests is only 25% of the equation. Are you great with teammates? Are you great with management? What about your own work ethic? Extra consideration will be given to those that show up on time, be willing to work late, have desires to get the job done right (and quickly), study when they're off, have long term goals, take mistakes on the chin, and love committing themselves to something they believe in.
Required certifications:
None necessary. But extra consideration will be given to those that have or want to get WSET, CSW, CMS, Cicerone, or CSS.
Other notes:
We're a restaurant. You will be required to work weekends and most holidays. It's a tough job so we're looking for tough people. It's also super stressful and things can change instantly. So if you have trouble being solutions-oriented - we're probably not a good fit. Like I said, this job is tough and stressful. If you like to yell, bring people down, don't pull your weight, or have trouble sacrificing your ego - we're probably not going to work out.
To apply:
Please include a cover letter introducing yourself and explaining your resume. We want to know you - add some personality, don't just copy and paste a template from Google. If you have a history gap, I want to know why. Double check your spelling and grammar. Extra consideration will be given to those that complete the Indeed Assessment test.
Thanks for taking the time to read all of this and considering Martha's Cafe as your next place of employment. We hope to reward you with a great place to work with an excellent culture - no matter if this will be a side hustle for you or if you want to open your own cafe in the future!
