Job Description
Huey's is a locally owned and operated restaurant that has been a beloved staple of the Memphis community for over 50 years. Known for its vibrant atmosphere combining blues, brews, and burgers, Huey's has garnered a reputation for providing excellent customer service, engaging in community outreach, and fostering a welcoming family environment. Founded in Midtown Memphis in 1970, Huey's gained acclaim with its award-winning burgers, voted the Best Burger in Memphis since 1984. The restaurant was passionately run for more than three decades by the late Thomas Boggs, whose legacy is now carried on by his children. Huey's offers a fun and flexible workplace that encourages employees to bring their own personalities to work, creating a lively and inclusive team culture.
The role of a Food Runner at Huey's is a vital position within the restaurant’s front-of-house team.

In addition to food delivery, the Food Runner supports the servers by greeting guests, bussing tables by clearing dirty dishes, and maintaining the cleanliness of the restaurant. This role demands consistent communication with both the back-of-house team and customers to verify that orders are correct and customers are satisfied. The Food Runner also plays a key role in upholding sanitation and food safety standards, including filling ice bins and monitoring the quality control of food leaving the kitchen.
This full-time position requires the ability to multitask effectively in a fast-paced environment, demonstrating strong organizational skills to manage multiple tables and customer requests simultaneously. The Food Runner must sustain energy throughout several hours on their feet and handle impromptu customer needs with professionalism and attention to detail. Huey's offers competitive compensation along with a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employee well-being and job satisfaction.
