The shift network London hospitality deserves.
Crueue is a new, vetted community of baristas, bartenders, chefs and front-of-house — vetted by people who know the industry, not screened by an algorithm. We're starting small, on purpose.
The founding crew is forming. 100 places, carefully vetted — baristas, bartenders, chefs and front-of-house.
Two sides, one standard
Built for the people who take hospitality seriously.
Not a job board. Every worker is interviewed and vetted; every venue is real and pre-cleared. Workers are independent professionals — Crueue is the platform that connects them to venues, and whoever grabs an open shift first works it.
For professionals
Work the venues you actually want to work.
One application gets you into a network where the good shifts come to you — and founding members shape how it works.
- Paid weekly on Mondays — invoices generated for you, no chasing
- £14/hr minimum across the network
- Grab the shifts you want — zero ghost listings
- Founding members get first pick as venues join
For venues
Cover any shift without lowering the bar.
Post the role, rate and time. Vetted crew who fit your venue pick it up.
- Every worker interviewed and vetted before their first cover
- Open only to your vetted crew — no broadcast blasts to strangers
- Charged per shift on your card on file — one clear receipt each time
- We resolve any issue quickly, personally
How it works
Three steps. No noise in between.
The process is deliberately simple — the quality control happens behind the scenes so you don't have to do it.
Apply once
A short application and a real conversation. Every applicant is reviewed by a person who's worked in the industry.
— reviewed within 48h
Grab your shifts
Open shifts from vetted venues land in your feed. See one that fits your craft and patch? Grab it — first to claim it gets it.
— no bidding, no waiting
Get paid, simply
Timesheets are automatic. Workers are paid weekly on Mondays; venues are charged per shift, no admin.
— zero payment chasing
Why we're building this
We've worked the bar, the pass and the floor — and been treated like a queue number by every agency app. Crueue is the network we wished existed: small, vetted and honest. Come build it with us.
The notice board
A community that sharpens its own.
Workshops, masterclasses and industry meetups from the hospitality community — because the best people want to get better, not just get booked.
No upcoming events right now — check back soon.
Founding applications open
Good venues deserve good people.
And vice versa.
We're building this with our first hundred members — every application is read by a real human within 48 hours. Standards are high from day one. That's the point.
