We’re an independent fast-paced coffee shop looking for a friendly and reliable member of staff to join our team at Belsay.

What we are looking for:
*Serving customers with a warm & welcoming attitude.
*Reliability & punctuality.
*Preparing & serving drinks & light food.
*Keeping counter & service area clean & organised.
*Supporting the team to ensure smooth day to day operations.

Previous experience is a plus but not essential.

Did you see us on TV!?

Robson Green and Joe McElderry paid a visit to our Belsay Coffee Shop for tea and cake as part of the new series of Robson Green's Weekend Escapes!

We were delighted to host them last summer while they filmed the new series and the epsiode aired on BBC2 tonight (Wednesday).

"I often come to the coffee shop here for the scones, tea and peaceful setting," Robson said.

Don't just take his word for it - we're open daily 10am-5pm so you can try our scones and other delights for yourself.

If you missed the it you can give Series 3 Episode 8 a watch on iPlayer.
