Our story
Back in 2019 in Paris, two friends, Charles and Victor, opened a brasserie together - the kind of place Parisians disappear into for a 3 hour lunch.
They called it La Nouvelle Garde: a promise to eat and drink the French way, done properly, 100% homemade, cooked from scratch from the highest quality seasonal ingredients.
They served classic French dishes prepared with care, generosity and excellence in beautiful, relaxed spaces full of energy.
Guests loved it! 🎉
So they opened another one, and then another one. Each with its own name, personality and story, but always with the same love for French food and hospitality. And 10 brasseries later, it was finally time to bring it to London.
In July 2026 in Sloane Square, Brasserie Olivia was born.
This is just the beginning of our London story, and we'd love you to help write the next chapter.
The role
As a Waiter / Waitress, you’ll look after our guests throughout their experience, making sure they leave happy.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
