Cafe Assistant Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I recently helped a busy cafe get through peak service by coordinating seating, orders and cleaning without letting anything slip. At [Previous Company], I looked after both front-of-house and some back-of-house tasks, and by using a simple daily checklist I reduced order wait times by 15 percent during lunch rush. I’m drawn to [Company Name] because solid routines and good communication matter as much here as they did there. I bring solid customer service and cash handling experience, with a focus on accuracy and calm under pressure. I can take orders efficiently, manage seating forWalk-ins and reservations, and keep the display and fridges well stocked. I’m comfortable with POS systems and handling payments, while maintaining clean trays, counters and tables between customers. Once, during a busy Saturday shift, I reorganised a jammed beverage fridge and restructured a limited display area to speed up service. The changes helped us serve more customers per hour without compromising quality, and the kitchen reported fewer stockouts that week. I’m careful with cleaning procedures and always aim to keep a neat, welcoming space for customers and staff alike. I’m available for chat about the role at your convenience. If it helps, I can start with a couple of shifts next week and show how I fit into the team. Kind regards, [Your Name]
