Why Work With Us

Keletora is more than a venue; it’s a passionate community hub for casual dining, craft beers, and weekend card tournaments.

Thrive in a fast-paced but supportive atmosphere where bistro service and social card play come together. You’ll collaborate with chefs, baristas, servers, and card hosts to craft memorable evenings for guests who quickly feel like regulars.

We focus on clear communication, fair scheduling, and a healthy balance between fun and professionalism so you can enjoy the buzz of a busy shift without burning out.

Our Culture

Respect, open minds, and real talk shape how we work together. Everyone’s voice matters, from new joiners to long-time leads. We embrace individuality, support social engagement, and encourage feedback that improves both service and the workplace.

Daily pre-shift huddles, cross-team check-ins, and post-service debriefs keep communication transparent. Whether you are on the pass, the floor, or the felt, you’re part of one crew.

Bistro & Kitchen Opportunities

Whether you’re an aspiring chef or a dedicated bistro server, you’ll be part of a tight brigade focused on flavour, speed, and warm hospitality. Expect a menu that balances comforting favourites with creative seasonal specials.

  • Line & Prep Chefs

    Support a compact, high-output kitchen with clear tickets, clean mise en place, and consistent execution. Ongoing training covers food safety, plating, and menu development.

  • Bistro Servers

    Own your section with confidence – guiding guests through menus, pairings, and pacing, while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and social.

  • Bar & Barista Team

    Pour craft beers, mix simple house drinks, and keep coffee service sharp. You’ll learn our signature serves and how to manage a busy bar with a smile.

We offer structured onboarding, fair compensation, and regular skill-building sessions so you can progress confidently.

Offline Poker & Social Games

Poker Lounge & Floor Jobs

Help us run a responsible, fun, fully offline card environment where guests come for social play, not high-risk gambling. Our card room is integrated with the bistro, creating a lively but relaxed setting.

  • Card Room Hosts

    Welcome players, manage seating lists, and coordinate with the bar and kitchen to keep the room comfortable, social, and on schedule.

  • Dealers

    Run casual cash games and friendly tournaments with clear rules, calm focus, and excellent table presence. We provide training on procedures and responsible play guidelines.

  • Table Supervisors

    Oversee multiple tables, support dealers, ensure fair play, and act as the link between the card room and management during peak hours.

All roles emphasise offline entertainment, clear boundaries, and a welcoming social environment – never online gambling.

Meet the Team

Keletora is powered by baristas who know the regulars’ orders, chefs who obsess over sauces, servers who can read the room, and card hosts who keep the felt friendly.

From first-day trainees to experienced leads, everyone contributes to the atmosphere guests feel the moment they walk through the door. You’ll be joining a crew that looks out for each other during the rush and celebrates together once the last table is cleared.
