Hospitality first. High standards. Good attitude. Strong team.
Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery is looking for experienced, hospitality-minded Servers to join our team.
We’re a neighborhood restaurant, market, and coffee shop on Charleston’s West Side built around thoughtful food, genuine hospitality, and a strong sense of community. We care deeply about the experience we create for our guests—and just as much about the team that makes it possible.
THE ROLE
Our servers are more than order takers. They are hosts, guides, teammates, and an important part of the experience at Lillian’s.
We’re looking for people who genuinely enjoy taking care of others, take pride in doing things well, and understand that great service comes from both individual effort and a strong team.
Our service standards are high and nonnegotiable. We expect attention to detail, urgency, professionalism, menu knowledge, and consistency. In return, we’re committed to teaching, developing, and creating opportunities for people who want to grow with us.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
Hospitality first. You genuinely enjoy taking care of people.
A great attitude. This is one of our top priorities.
Teamwork. We help each other, communicate, and understand that great service takes the entire team.
High standards. You care about the details and take pride in your work.
Reliability and professionalism. Your team can count on you.
Curiosity. You’re interested in learning about food, wine, cocktails, and hospitality.
Open availability, including weekends and holidays.
Previous serving experience is strongly preferred.
OPPORTUNITY TO GROW
We want people who are interested in becoming stronger hospitality professionals—not simply picking up shifts.
For the right team members, there are opportunities to take on additional responsibility, develop leadership skills, and cross-train behind the bar through our bartender training program.
If you want to learn, contribute, and grow, we want to invest in you.

Hospitality from the Heart. Community at Our Core.
At Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery, we believe hospitality is about far more than service — it’s about creating meaningful experiences, genuine connection, and a place where both guests and team members feel welcomed, valued, and inspired.
Located on Charleston’s historic Westside, Lillian’s is a neighborhood destination that blends a thoughtfully curated market, vibrant coffee shop, and seasonal eatery into one warm and inviting space. We celebrate local flavors, creative food and beverage programs, and the simple joy of gathering around good food, good people, and genuine hospitality.
Our mission is rooted in community. We proudly partner with local farmers, makers, artists, and small businesses, and we strive to create a space that feels both elevated and approachable — a place our neighbors return to again and again. Hospitality, curiosity, creativity, and teamwork are at the heart of everything we do.
At Lillian’s, we believe in building strong, versatile teams. Cross-training and collaboration are an important part of our culture, and we value team members who are excited to learn multiple areas of the business. Whether serving guests in the dining room, crafting coffee drinks as a barista, assisting with market operations, or supporting behind the bar, our team works together to create a seamless and memorable guest experience throughout the space.
We are looking for individuals who are hardworking, positive, hospitality-driven, and excited to grow within a collaborative environment. Open availability, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays, allows us to best support our guests and one another during the times our community gathers most.
Joining Lillian’s means becoming part of a close-knit team that values creativity, professionalism, adaptability, and genuine care for others. If you thrive in an environment where hospitality, community, and teamwork come together, we would love to meet you.
