Front of House Positions Hell's Backbone Grill & Farm

  • Date Posted March 07, 2021
  • Location Boulder, UT
  • Category Culinary
  • Job type Summer Job
Company description

Hell's Backbone Grill & Farm, now in its 22nd season, is a James Beard nominated farm-to-table restaurant in Southern Utah. We believe deeply in the importance of organic, locally produced, regionally and seasonally appropriate cuisine. On our 6.5 acre farm, we grow vegetables, fruit, herbs, flowers, and raise hens for eggs, all of which directly supplies the restaurant. We rely largely on local ranchers for the grass-fed and finished meat we serve. Our commitments to sustainability and environmental ethics are central to our restaurant and farm. 

Though we are located in one of the most remote towns in the lower 48, Hell's Backbone Grill & Farm is bustling during the season (May through October). Surrounded by the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, and on the scenic road connecting many of Utah's National Parks, our restaurant is a destination for many who come to experience the immense and beautiful wilderness that Southern Utah has to offer. 

Job description

We are hiring for Front of House positions at our farm-to-table restaurant! The general positions are: server, bartender, and host, though many of our FOH staff do a combination of these positions. Being in a remote town, flexibility and the ability to do multiple positions is immensely helpful, as we function very much as a team. 

FOH Staff at our restaurant have the pleasure of serving food and drinks that they can be proud of - with many of the ingredients sourced from our own farm and local ranchers. Our goal is to connect our guests to the food they're eating and the place from which it came. We hope to create an experience in which our guests fall in love with the wilderness around us and want to protect it as much as we do. 

We are looking for full-time FOH staff (40 hours/week) who thrive in a busy, fast-paced restaurant environment. Serving, bartending, or hosting experience is strongly preferred, and a positive attitude and strong work ethic is a must! We ask our FOH staff to bring an attention to detail and a commitment to excellence to every shift, as we strive to provide each guest the best possible experience. 

A few things to note about our restaurant in the time of COVID:
- We will be offering patio-dining and take-out only, so FOH staff need to be comfortable working outside.
- We will be offering dinner only, so all FOH staff shifts will be in the evening (typically 3 - 11 pm or so). 
- Staff must be willing/able to wear a mask for the entirety of the shift.

Other important information:
- We prioritize applicants who can commit to the entirety of our season (May through October).
- There is housing available for rent in our 9-bedroom staff house.
- As we are in a remote location with no public transportation, you MUST have a car or motorcycle.
- All restaurant staff are welcome to visit or volunteer on the farm as much as they'd like, as we know many are interested in learning more about farming while they're here. 

Compensation this position is : hourly, $20/hr + Application instructions
