Experienced Barista

2 weeks ago


Margate, United Kingdom The Louies Full time

We’re looking for someone who understands that coffee is about more than just caffeine — it’s about connection.

At _Louie on Sea_, we care deeply about creating a warm, welcoming environment where people can slow down, feel seen, and enjoy good things made with intention. We’re looking for a barista who shares that ethos — someone who enjoys both the craft of coffee and the rhythm of service, who brings care into every detail, and who understands what true hospitality feels like.

If you also appreciate the role of a good playlist in shaping the mood of the room, that’s a bonus—we believe music is part of the experience, not just background noise.

What the role involves:

- Preparing and serving excellent coffee and tea to our house standards
- Creating a calm, welcoming atmosphere for every guest
- Keeping the coffee station and seating areas clean, organised, and visually inviting
- Supporting with food prep and presentation when needed
- Handling till transactions with accuracy and efficiency
- Working closely with the team to ensure smooth service, especially during busy periods

We’d love to hear from you if you:

- Genuinely enjoy working with people
- Have a calm, thoughtful approach to service—even under pressure
- Take pride in doing things properly and paying attention to detail
- Are curious about coffee and hospitality, and open to learning
- Are reliable and collaborative, with good time management
- Have a soft spot for a good tune and understand how music sets the tone
- Have some experience in hospitality or food prep (preferred but not essential)

What we offer:

- A supportive, respectful work environment with a focus on wellbeing
- Hands-on training and opportunities to grow in your role
- A beautiful space to work in, with a team who genuinely care
- Fair pay, proper breaks, good coffee, and a strong sense of purpose

If this sounds like the right fit, we’d love to hear from you. Send us a short note telling us a bit about yourself and why you’d like to join the team.

Let’s make something meaningful together.
