Careers · Berwyn, PA · on the Main Line

No two shifts here
are the same shift.

Tuesday you're running karaoke. Thursday there's a comedian upstairs. Friday the DJ starts at eight and the dance floor fills. Saturday it's a wedding for two hundred and fifty. Some Sundays it's football. If you've done your time somewhere every Tuesday was the same Tuesday, you'll know why that matters.

The honest pitch

Sundays and Mondays off. Actually off.

Closed to the public Sunday and Monday — the same two days, every week, in your calendar before the schedule goes up. Anyone who's worked a rota that changes every fortnight knows what that's worth.

The money's good, and here's why. A twelve‑ounce ribeye, an $18 cocktail list and 250‑person events mean bigger checks — and 20% of a bigger check is a better night.

And there's actually something to do here. Pool tables, shuffleboard, darts, ping pong, a dance floor and a fireplace. On your night off you get the industry discount like everyone else, and nobody minds if you stay and play.

The owners are the DiDomenicos. They live up the road in Easttown Township and they're here most nights — which means when something goes wrong, you're talking to the person who can fix it, not filing a ticket with a regional manager in another state.

A week here

Same building, six different jobs.

This is roughly what a week looks like. It's why people who've worked here a while tend to stay — the room changes character every night, and so does the shift.

What we hire for

Front of house, back of house, and events.

We take applications year‑round even when nothing's posted — hospitality moves fast and we'd rather have someone good on file than start from nothing in October.

Front of house

Servers & bartenders

Bartenders here make proper drinks. A smoked old fashioned, an espresso martini pulled to order, ten signature cocktails on the list — and a room full of people who order them. If you want to get better at it, say so and we'll teach you.

Servers, bartenders, barbacks and hosts. Experience helps. Being someone people want to work a Saturday with matters more.

Kitchen

Line & prep cooks

Full‑time line cook positions, plus part‑time and prep. Scratch kitchen — ribeye, jumbo lump crab cakes, braised short rib, fresh pappardelle. Then the catering side: passed hors d'oeuvres, plated filet for two hundred, raw bar. That range is hard to get in one kitchen, and it's the reason cooks who come here tend to leave better than they arrived.

Line, prep, kitchen support and dish. Full‑time and part‑time. Shift meal every shift, off the real menu.

Events

Banquet & event staff

Weddings, mitzvahs, reunions and parties up to 500 across two floors. Big rooms, big energy, and a clear end time — which a lot of people prefer to an open-ended Saturday. Ideal if you want extra shifts around another job, school, or a life.

Event work runs seven days, including the Sundays and Mondays we're closed to the public. Tell us how many shifts you want and we'll work to it.

Everything else

Management & support

Floor and shift managers, event coordinators, and sound and lighting help for shows upstairs. We're small enough that a good person can genuinely shape a role rather than slot into one — several people here now started in a different job and talked their way into the one they wanted.

Musicians and DJs looking to play here should use that form instead.

Getting to work

You don't need a car.

Berwyn station is directly across Lancaster Avenue, on SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale line. That's a genuine advantage if you're a student, if you're saving for a car, or if you'd rather not drive home at 1 AM.

If you do drive, parking is free — our lot behind the building off Main Avenue, plus several free lots within a three‑minute walk.

We're in Berwyn, Easttown Township, and easy to reach from Devon, Paoli, Wayne, Strafford, Malvern, Exton and Villanova.

Anyone serving alcohol needs to meet Pennsylvania's legal age and certification requirements — if you're not certified yet, say so, it isn't a dealbreaker.

Midtown Social is an equal opportunity employer. We hire on whether you can do the job and whether we'd want to work a Saturday night with you.

Apply

Send it over.

Goes straight to the managers. No cover letter needed — just tell us what you've done and when you can work.

Never worked in a restaurant? Say so. We've trained plenty of people from nothing, and we'd rather teach you our way from the start.

Prefer to do it in person? Come in Tuesday to Thursday between 4 and 6 and ask for a manager. That's the quietest part of our week and someone will actually have time to talk to you.

Questions first? Call 610-220-2367.

We read everything that comes in. If there's a fit we'll call within a week or two; if there isn't right now we'll keep you on file for when there is.
