Peet's Coffee is a renowned coffee company recognized for its commitment to quality, freshness, and exceptional customer service. Established as a pioneer in the specialty coffee industry, Peet's Coffee operates cafes and retail locations that emphasize sourcing the finest coffee beans and crafting expertly roasted blends. The brand prides itself on its deep-rooted coffee heritage, dedication to sustainable and ethical sourcing practices, and delivering an unparalleled coffee experience to its guests. With locations often found in vibrant, high-traffic areas, Peet's Coffee cafes serve as welcoming spaces where customers can enjoy premium coffee and espresso beverages in a relaxing environment.

The Barista role at Peet's Coffee within the hotel setting offers an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic team focused on delivering high-quality coffee and exceptional guest service. This position involves preparing and serving coffee, espresso, and specialty beverages following Peet's renowned recipes and presentation standards. The Barista ensures prompt, friendly, and personalized service to all guests, creating a memorable cafe experience. Precision in taking orders, processing transactions using the POS system, and maintaining the cleanliness and organization of the cafe are critical aspects of this role.

In addition to beverage preparation, the Barista is responsible for restocking products, handling food and beverage items with proper storage and rotation techniques, and adhering to strict food safety, sanitation, and health guidelines. The Barista will maintain thorough knowledge of menu offerings, making thoughtful recommendations to guests to enhance their visit.
