Kaffeine Legend - Grace 'Gracie' Piper - Senior Barista

Grace had just returned from an extended holiday back home in NZ to the UK when she approached us for work. This was back in February 2013. With a great background in hospitality and experience at a busy cafe in Westfield as a key holder, barista and supervisor, we were very glad to have Grace join the team.

She started on the floor, but it was not long until a position as a barista became available and Grace moved up to work on the Synesso. She reminded me of Kimsy bro, who also had an effortless grace (ha ha) about her in service and efficiency. Polite, smiling, always punctual, very, very calm under pressure and a delight to work with.

It is a true reflection of how much you value an employee when you see that they are on the roster and it is going to be really busy and you know that you can really rely on that employee to deliver above and beyond the expectations of all parties, our customers, her workmates, her manager and to myself.

Grace has returned back to New Zealand to follow a dream and study jewellery making. We wish her all the very, very best and truly hope she achieves all that she desires, because she deserves it.

We will miss you Grace. All the best. True Kaffeine legend.
