About Chick-fil-A

Working at a Chick-fil-A® restaurant is an opportunity to build teamwork and leadership skills in a positive, people-focused environment. Most Chick-fil-A restaurants are locally owned and operated by independent franchised Operators who invest in their Team Members and give back to their communities.


About the Role

A warm welcome can change someone’s day. As a Dining Room Host, you’ll help our neighbors in Town and Country feel right at home from the moment they walk in. You might greet a regular by name, help a family find a table and a high chair, or notice that a guest might need a beverage refreshed. Those small moments are how we make each visit feel personal.

You’ll care for the dining room as if you were welcoming guests into your own home. That means keeping tables clean and ready, supplies stocked, and trash bins emptied, even during the lunch rush. You’ll work alongside a team that pitches in during busy moments and learn from an independent Owner/Operator and experienced Restaurant Leaders.

Position Type

  • Full-time and part-time opportunities
  • $15–$18 per hour

Our Benefits

  • A positive, people-focused work environment where you can make a difference for guests and teammates
  • Flexible scheduling and Sundays off
  • Hands-on learning from an experienced Owner/Operator and Restaurant Leaders
  • Training and development to help you grow and take on more responsibility
  • Scholarship opportunities
  • Competitive pay and discounted Chick-fil-A food

What You’ll Do

  • Greet guests warmly, make eye contact, and speak with enthusiasm.
  • Build genuine connections with guests and check in during their meal.
  • Offer beverage refills and help guests get settled or find what they need.
  • Clean and reset tables, wipe down chairs and high chairs, and keep floors and guest areas tidy.
  • Restock napkins, utensils, condiments, and other dining room supplies.
  • Empty trash bins, replace liners, and keep trash stations clean.
  • Communicate guest needs to teammates and shift leaders so concerns are addressed promptly.
  • Follow Chick-fil-A service, cleanliness, and dress standards and help with other duties as assigned.

Qualifications and Requirements

  • Dependable, consistent, and cheerful, with a genuine desire to serve others
  • Comfortable starting conversations and communicating with guests and teammates
  • Attentive to detail and able to balance guest needs with cleaning and restocking
  • Able to work independently and as part of a team
  • Willing and able to work a flexible schedule
  • Able to stand and walk for several hours at a time and regularly lift and carry up to 25 pounds

Most Chick-fil-A® restaurants are operated by independent franchised business owners who make their own employment decisions and are responsible for their own content and policies.
