Restaurant Manager

Hey there, Greater Houston! I get it! You are in need of a temporary autumn side hustle and a little adventure! You’re outgoing, physically fit, and know what clean looks like. But you’re bored with the food service job options you’ve been scrolling by in your feed.

You want something both challenging and fun, and it would be nice to get paid a decent wage PLUS a share of tips.

I understand. I worked traditional food service for decades before I found where I could be both playful and hustling, and now I do that full time.

But there is no need for a long commitment … The Texas Renaissance Festival is only open for 8 weekends. 8 weekends of high-volume food sales in an interactive environment that is a fantasy land sprung-up in a visionary’s back yard, complete with wandering minstrels.

The event happens just 45 minutes North of Houston, for 8 weekends, beginning October 7th, and ending November 26th, including Thanksgiving Friday.

We are hiring Shoppe Managers for several locations. Our kitchens are fast‑paced and high volume which means there is never a dull moment!

If on your feet problem solving is in your wheelhouse, we want to hear about it. This is also where your keen customer service skills will shine!

We do ask that Managerial Applicants possess a valid SERV Safe or Manager‑Food Handlers certification to ensure compliance with food safety standards.

Paid dialect training will be provided for these positions.

Starting pay is $15 per hour, plus an even split of pooled tips. Higher starting pay is possible with higher responsibility positions and experience.

Your first check will include pre‑show training day(s), dress rehearsal day and your first weekend’s pay! Direct Deposit is available and encouraged.
