Due to our ongoing growth plans here at Lennys, we are currently seeking some new staff to join our team. We are looking for the following roles within our group business (incorporating Lennys of Rochester and Lennys of Eastgate)

Group Manager (of both businesses)
A cook
Front of House Superstars and
Restaurant Staff

These roles are ideally, full time but we would consider part time applicants, that said ALL applicants would need to understand that weekend, bank holiday and school holidays all fall in as part of the working year. Experience is preferred. Remember hospitality isn’t for the faint hearted, we are busy, when everyone is wanting to enjoy themselves. There is no point applying if you are going to let us down, go sick all the time or have commitments that get in the way of having a job. We mean that in the nicest possible way, but we have grand plans and we want you to come on the journey, positively.

If you are interested in any of these roles and would like more information, please drop us a DM, or an email at [email protected]

25/06/2024

We are recruiting a Coffee Shop Manager at our beautiful Lennys of Eastgate Café.

If you are interested in this role, please drop us an email at [email protected] or DM us for more details.

Thank you so much for all your entries. It’s great so many people want to come in for goodies. Seems the Facebook algorithm has allowed some sort of weird profile that’s mimicked ours. This isn’t us and as such please don’t click on it. We shall notify winners by direct message/phone.

We’ve got the new and chilled Lennys of Eastgate. Accessible to all - with disabled toilets available. Fingers crossed for sunshine as we have a beautiful decked area looking out over Eastgate Gardens and with views of Charles Dickens Chalet.

Our third store is a pop up - we were asked to return as the preferred coffee shop at Rochester Art Fair at the beautiful Corn Exchange. We shall be located in the Princess Suite. With coffee (made on a bike - yes, go with it!) and drinks and savoury snacks galore. Plus a host of donuts, muffins and other goodies.

All our our locations are licensed. So come and visit us!
