Unprofessional
Chef (Former Employee) - Birmingham, West Midlands - 15 November 2023
Very stressful as always busy and people never greeting you. The head chef is very unprofessional and the site very old and dirty. Stay away from this site

Jobs at Cosy Club
Better than most places
Waitress (Former Employee) - Bath, Somerset - 26 October 2023
The managers try their best to be professional/respectful while keeping that 'family' vibe so it's a good balance. The staff is nice enough and it's a nice place to work in, if you're respectful they will be too. Rotas are flexible if you're a student and they'll train you very well!

Do not work for this company.
Waiter (Former Employee) - Liverpool City Centre, Merseyside - 1 September 2023
This company is money-hungry and does not care about its staff. You will be expected to run around juggling plates on your head for minimum wage. And if you complain you won't be given hours. Management is unprofessional.
Pros
tips are good
Cons
everything else.

Bad management.
Bad management when first opened, felt like massive deceive between departments. Tips not done fairly. Chefs loved the microwave (company policy). GM was nuts.

Friendly upper management
Bartender (Former Employee) - Cardiff, Cardiff - 13 August 2023
Upper management were very friendly and helpful, however the gms are awful. Very unprofessional. Allergens need to be better managed and lots of unnecessary food waste on the bar.

Fun work environment
FOH Team Member (Current Employee) - Basingstoke, Hampshire - 9 August 2023
Lovely managers (mainly) made brilliant friends, can have a good laugh but is sometimes taken way to seriously, time off ignored un till last minute if not at all acknowledged. Be prepared to have no social life, promised in contract to have a weekend off every six weeks and that never ever happens 25hrs +weekends every week.

okay for a short time
Waitress (Former Employee) - Coventry City Centre, West Midlands - 29 July 2023
a fine place to work if you don't mind not having a life. Long hours with not a lot of breaks. managers tend to micromanage which can be annoying. staff were all lovely

Best decision I’ve ever made
Bar Manager (Current Employee) - Harrogate, North Yorkshire - 17 May 2023
Moved to Cosy Club a month ago and it is hands down the best call I’ve made working in hospitality, I’ve never know a structure like it and most importantly I’ve been given the work life balance, training and progression path I’ve been searching for. I feel a great deal of pride when I come to work everyday and I’m proud to be working in such a great company serving great products daily 🙌🏻

Worst one Iv had the misfortune of working for out of all hospitality companies in the uk
Really poorly managed company from the top to the bottom. Only focused on new openings and not maintaining the ones they already have. There is no training unless it’s online, hours over 48 are expected. If you request assistance for anything it’s likely you will not receive any. Avoid at all costs.
Pros
None
Cons
Too many to mention

Bad communication and hours
Front House Receptionist (Former Employee) - Taunton, Somerset - 28 March 2023
Their communication is quite bad. Even they added you in the working group but you don't feel you are fitted in. Also you won't know your working hours until very last minute. If they think you've got problems, they decided not to use you just cut down your hours to 0 instead of telling you. Using this kind of way to make you leave. When you feel you need more time to learn, few hours a month is not very much and hardly get you to learn anything. That's why they keep looking for peu just BCS they have already got some strong hold from house. And new ppl are just the backup to do the hours they can't be in. That's why you don't feel like you earn enough but also also they are wait for you to leave instead of giving you more hours.
Pros
You
Cons
Not many hours
