☘️ A LITTLE UPDATE FROM THE HARE & THE HOUND ☘️

First, a huge thank you to everyone who applied, shared our hiring post, or sent someone our way. The response has been incredible.

We’re happy to say we’ve already filled a few positions:

✅ Baker’s Assistant
✅ Dishwasher
✅ Server

We are still accepting applications, so please keep them coming! As business continues to grow, we’re continuing to add the right people to our team.

As many of you know, our Executive Chef has been home enjoying some well-deserved time with his family after welcoming his new baby. He’ll be back with us next Wednesday, and once he returns, we’ll be putting together a whole new specials menu for the following week.

We’ve already been throwing some ideas around, and we think you’re really going to like what we have coming. 👀🍽️

Thank you again for all the support, applications, shares, and kind words. We appreciate each and every one of you. ☘️

🥕🍸 Gram’s favorite carrot cake just got a little upgrade…

Carrot cake cupcakes topped with a carrot cake martini shot. 🧁🍸

Sweet, creamy, a little boozy and definitely not your average carrot cake.

Gram’s approves 😂

Available while they last at The Hare & The Hound! ☘️

🔥 WE’RE GROWING — AND WE’RE HIRING! 🔥

Due to the continued increase in business at The Hare & The Hound ,we’re expanding our Back of House team. ☘️

One thing we’re especially proud of: many of our employees have been with us for 4–6 years. In an industry known for turnover, we think that says a lot about the team and culture we’ve built.

We’re looking to add a few more people who want to become part of that team:

👨‍🍳 Line Cooks/Sauté Cooks
🔪 2 Prep Cooks
🧼 2 Dishwashers
🥐 1 Baker Assistant

We believe in high standards, discipline, ownership, teamwork, urgency, and showing up on time ready to work.

We work hard. We stay busy. We hold each other accountable. And when we find good people, we want them here for years — not months.

☘️ WE ARE NOT IN THE BUSINESS OF AVERAGE.
WE ARE EXCEPTIONAL.
