Join Our Team | Server at Lillian’s

Hospitality first. High standards. Good attitude. Strong team.

Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery is looking for experienced, hospitality-minded Servers to join our team.

We’re a neighborhood restaurant, market, and coffee shop on Charleston’s West Side built around thoughtful food, genuine hospitality, and a strong sense of community. We care deeply about the experience we create for our guests—and just as much about the team that makes it possible.

THE ROLE

Our servers are more than order takers. They are hosts, guides, teammates, and an important part of the experience at Lillian’s.

We’re looking for people who genuinely enjoy taking care of others, take pride in doing things well, and understand that great service comes from both individual effort and a strong team.

Our service standards are high and nonnegotiable. We expect attention to detail, urgency, professionalism, menu knowledge, and consistency. In return, we’re committed to teaching, developing, and creating opportunities for people who want to grow with us.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• Hospitality first. You genuinely enjoy taking care of people.
• A great attitude. This is one of our top priorities.
• Teamwork. We help each other, communicate, and understand that great service takes the entire team.
• High standards. You care about the details and take pride in your work.
• Reliability and professionalism. Your team can count on you.
• Curiosity. You’re interested in learning about food, wine, cocktails, and hospitality.
• Open availability, including weekends and holidays.
• Previous serving experience is strongly preferred.

OPPORTUNITY TO GROW

We want people who are interested in becoming stronger hospitality professionals—not simply picking up shifts.

For the right team members, there are opportunities to take on additional responsibility, develop leadership skills, and cross-train behind the bar through our bartender training program.

If you want to learn, contribute, and grow, we want to invest in you.

WHY LILLIAN’S?

• Competitive pay + tips
• A strong, hospitality-focused team
• Employee discounts
• Food, wine, cocktail, and service education
• Bartender cross-training opportunities
• Opportunities for advancement and leadership
• A locally owned restaurant where your contribution matters

JOIN US

Come be part of what we’re building at Lillian’s—and grow with us.
