They take orders, explain menu items (e.g., fish and chips, pies, or vegetarian options), and offer recommendations, ensuring diners feel informed about the fresh, sustainable seafood and other dishes. - Food and Beverage Service : They serve food and drinks promptly, ensuring dishes like cod with hand-cut chips or sticky toffee pudding are presented well. Waiters also handle special requests, such as dietary accommodations, and check in with guests to ensure satisfaction. - Table Management : Responsibilities include setting tables, clearing plates, and maintaining a clean dining area, both indoors and on the outdoor terrace. During busy periods, like the Whitecross Street food market rush, waiters manage multiple tables efficiently. - Team Coordination : Waiters liaise with kitchen staff to ensure accurate and timely order delivery. They may also assist with takeaway orders, coordinating with delivery platforms like Just Eat or Uber Eats. - Upselling and Engagement : They promote specials, desserts, or drinks to enhance the dining experience and boost sales, while maintaining a friendly, non-pushy demeanor. - Skills and Qualities : Waiters need strong communication, multitasking, and customer service skills.
