Sidecar Doughnuts & Coffee

At Sidecar, we don't just serve doughnuts we're revolutionizing the way people experience them. Everything is made from scratch, in small batches, with the best ingredients we can find. Our servers are the face of that standard the warm welcome and the reason guests come back. If you find real joy in taking care of people, love sharing what you know, and want to be the reason someone's day got a little better, read on.

Our mission is simple and ambitious: revolutionize the way people experience doughnuts. We pursue that every day through three commitments bringing people together, creating meaningful experiences, and crafting everything with excellence. For a server, all three are personal: you're the one who brings people together and turns each visit into a moment worth remembering. We aim to be "The Happiest Part of Your Day," and that goes for our team, too. Sidecar runs on five values:

• Warm: Kindness in action toward guests and the teammates serving beside you.
• Fun: We're serving doughnuts, not curing cancer. The work is serious; the spirit is joyful.
• Fresh: Stylish, refined, and original. What we make is distinctly Sidecar never a copy.
• Creative: We experiment and refine so we never grow stale, while staying true to our roots.
• Excellent: High standards, no compromises in product quality, consistency, and cleanliness.

Our servers are the heart of the guest experience and grow their craft over time. Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Welcome: Greet every guest like you're glad they came warm, genuine, and present from hello to goodbye.
• Know the product: Master our doughnuts, coffee, ingredients, and tasting notes so you can speak to every item with confidence.
• Guide & recommend: Ask good questions, make thoughtful suggestions, and help guests discover something they'll love.
• Make it personal: Remember regulars, their names, and their favorites make every guest feel welcomed, remembered, and important.
• Serve with care: Take orders accurately, handle the counter and register, and deliver fast, friendly, professional service through every rush.
• Presentation: Box, plate, and present product to Sidecar's standards so it looks as good as it tastes.
• Cleanliness & safety: Keep the front of house clean, stocked, and food-safe, following all health and sanitation standards.
• Teamwork: Communicate clearly, support the line during the rush, and help the next shift start strong.
