Cherry Cricket is where friends, families and out-of-towners have been going for burgers and their brew of choice since 1945. We’re a Denver institution because we serve up the best appetizers, sides, entrees and award-winning burgers with a “welcome home, now sit down and enjoy” attitude. And do not forget about our wide selection of craft beers, especially Colorado local breweries, we love our neighbors.

We are growing and opening our 4th location in Broomfield, CO this year! As we grow, we are looking for an experienced Front of House Restaurant Manager or Bar Manager to join our team!

Previous management experience in a full-service, casual dining restaurant is required.

Reporting to the General Manager, the Restaurant Manager/Bar Manager will deliver a high-quality menu and motivate our staff to provide excellent customer service.
