The Vibe
At Category 12, we believe hospitality is about far more than just taking orders and filling glasses – we know it’s about creating real human connection. We serve uncompromising beer brewed on-site and food made completely from scratch by a kitchen team that takes true pride in what they do. We are looking for servers who bring warmth, energy, and a genuine love for community into every shift.
The Opportunity
As a Taproom Server, you are the heart of the guest experience. You won’t just be dropping off plates; you’ll be guiding guests through our menu, sharing the story behind our craft, and making everyone who walks through our doors feel like a regular.
What You’ll Be Doing
Guide the Experience: Educate guests on our rotating tap list and scratch kitchen menu with enthusiasm and authenticity.
Cultivate Community: Build rapport with locals and create a welcoming, vibrant environment for first-time visitors.
Keep Things Moving: Work efficiently in a fast-paced environment – balancing tables, pour stations, and guest needs seamlessly.
Collaborate: Partner closely with our back-of-house team, respecting the care that goes into every dish and pint served.
Who You Are
- Hospitality-Driven: You genuinely love people. Connecting with guests comes naturally to you, and you take pride in making someone’s day better.
- Craft Advocate: You have an appreciation for high-quality, scratch-made food and exceptional craft beer (and you’re eager to learn more).
- Team-Minded: You bring positive energy, show up for your teammates, and step in wherever help is needed.
- Reliable & Adaptable: You stay calm under pressure during busy weekend rushes and maintain high standards of cleanliness and organization.
Why This Job is Different
Pride in the Product: Serve food and beer you can actually be excited about – no shortcuts, no corporate BS.
A Tight-Knit Culture: Join a supportive team where your personality is valued and decision-makers are right there on the floor with you.
Perks & Discounts: Enjoy great food and beer perks, competitive tip shares, and flexible scheduling.
The team is small, but the support is real.
You’re working directly with the owners and team leads. No layers of management. No bureaucracy. Just clear communication, mutual respect, and a shared goal: make great food and beer in a space people love.
