About us

We hear it time and time again, when we recruit from hospitality veterans who have got their battle scars from service in town: we have got a friendly supportive team that are just like family, we are the holy grail in hospitality, due to having a busy service, but with good flexible sociable hours, and the fact we change how we operate regularly whether that's trying out new menus, trying out new processes and procedures - we just want to be better at what we do...

You will play one of the most important roles in ensuring that our customers are happy. You will be the face of The Watering Can to our customers and must be passionate about delivering the best experience possible.
