Benefits/Perks
Perkins' commitment to quality and innovation began in 1958 when Matt and Ivan Perkins opened their first pancake house in Cincinnati, Ohio. Today's Perkins still serves pancakes and excels at breakfast fare. However, our restaurants also offer some 100 breakfast, lunch, and dinner items with signature dishes including specialty omelets, melt sandwiches, hearty entrees, and salads. The most iconic piece of Perkins is, you guessed it, our pie!
At Perkins, we take great pride in our service, experience, and feeding folks what they like. It’s the cornerstone of our company and the thing that keeps us going after all these years. With nearly 300 company-owned and franchised locations in 32 states and two Canadian provinces, we’re proud of how far we’ve come. Perkins American Food Co. is franchised by JDK Management Company - a family of hospitality and service companies since 1982.
We are looking for a Host/Cashier who will greet every guest with a prompt and friendly welcome. You are the guest’s first and last impression of Perkins American Food Co. – have fun with it!
