Food Runner

Food Runner

Recipe Philly is a first-of-its-kind restaurant: a full-service dining experience built on the principles of Heirloom Hospitality. Every dish on our menu comes from a real family recipe, surfaced through a citywide competition and accompanying TV series. The food here means something. So does the team that serves it.

Every plate that leaves our kitchen has a story and an allergy profile you need to know cold. A food runner here isn't just carrying food to a table. You're getting it to the right seat, at the right table, every time.

What you'll do

• Know the menu inside and out, especially allergens
• Memorize all tables and seat numbers
• Carry plates from kitchen to guest with care and confidence
• Build TOGO orders accurately and place them to the right food locker for guest pickup
• Keep supplies stocked, including napkins, utensils, and TOGO containers
• Jump in wherever the front-of-house team needs a hand

What we're looking for

• 2+ years in a high-volume, upscale restaurant preferred
• Excellent interpersonal and customer service skills
• A team player who works well under pressure
• Able to lift and move up to 50 pounds
• Available for 5 shifts a week for lunch and/or dinner service

Compensation

Food runners at Recipe Philly earn hourly pay (based on experience) plus tips, paid weekly.

Required skills include knowledge of food safety and allergen management, attention to detail, ability to memorize information quickly, strong communication skills, time management skills, ability to work in a fast-paced environment, adaptability and flexibility, and collaboration with the front of house team.
