What is a back server?

Back Servers, also known as bussers or runner staff, are restaurant employees who support servers by clearing tables, resetting them for new guests, refilling water, and delivering food from the kitchen to the dining area. They ensure the dining environment is clean and organized, helping the restaurant operate smoothly. Back Servers also assist with side tasks such as stocking supplies and sometimes help servers with guest requests. Their role is essential for maintaining efficient service and a positive guest experience.
