About The Position

At Home Run Inn, we believe pizza should do more than fill you up—it should lift you up. For nearly 100 years, we've been welcoming guests with authentic Chicago tavern-style pizza and genuine hospitality. Every great guest experience begins with a friendly voice on the phone and a warm smile at the door. If you enjoy helping people, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and love making others feel welcome, we'd love to meet you. As a Phone Cashier / Host, you'll be one of the first people our guests interact with. Whether you're answering the phone, greeting families as they arrive, helping guests with carryout orders, or keeping the front of the restaurant running smoothly, you'll help create experiences that keep people coming back. Every conversation matters, and every guest deserves to feel like they're part of the Home Run Inn family. No two shifts are exactly the same—and that's part of the fun.
