Now let us all listen up

Our Team Spirit is Paramount

We all pull our weight, help each other, have a laugh and get along. We do not do grumpy or moody and we leave our ego's in the bike shed. Interaction with each other and pride in our teams is crucial, service and food occasionally goes wrong, what is important is that we learn from our mistakes and have respect.

Our Customer Servers & Table Service

When we work, we agree service techniques and enjoy them with confidence

We think and act with clear processes, systems and procedures

Great service

Great service is as important as what's on the plate

The ability of successful service staff is someone who has the ability to 'put themselves in our guest's shoes' and imagine what they might need or enjoy if the roles were reversed. Think like a guest!

Plates

We do not do mass or multiple

Smaller truly is more beautiful, and at the Cairn we are lucky enough to enjoy a professional intimacy and have time for our guests, whereby they are truly treated as individuals with their own unique and specific requests.

Wine and glass

Our recommendations are based upon detailed knowledge of our craft

As experts in our field, as servers we are the conduit that links the kitchen know-how and sheer brilliance of our food and drinks to ensure that what you order and how it is delivered to you is in keeping with your expectations and enjoyment to create a memorable experience on the day

We Are Focused Professionals, Anticipate Guest's Needs

We taste and understand

We have an in-depth knowledge of the content of every single one of our dishes, the ingredients, the cooking methods and the flavours on the palate. We are able to guide our guests in making the correct menu choice on the day for their ultimate enjoyment and pleasure.

Wine and glass

We learn and train in what we do

Rather like a football team or orchestra, we practice all the time to continue to be better, more organised and truly hone our team performance whereby we make it look totally effortless (when it is anything but!). Always polished, always guest focused, always present and always professional.

Wine and glass

Without the service the Chefs are lost.

The working relationship between front and back of house staff is the key to a brilliant experience for our guests. The mutual professional respect in which we hold each other is such an important part of our relationship with the kitchen and vice versa. At the end of every service, there is only one focus - our guests and their satisfaction.
