‘Nothing appears to be too much trouble for him,’ said his nominator, Steve Parks.
‘An example would be when he’d run out of something, and my wife wanted it in particular, so he went out and got it.
‘He always remembers names – people like being called by their names, not mister, not sir.
‘It’s noticeable that he comes over and talks to us, it’s amazing he finds the time – or he makes the time, I should say.’
Steve tries to go to the tea room every week, and recommends Robert’s lovely toasted gache.
‘He goes the extra mile. When you get good service and good coffee, you go back. It’s repeat business. He entices you to go back,’ he said.
Robert was touched and overwhelmed with his nomination for a job he continues to ‘immensely enjoy’.
‘I’m thrilled to bits. It’s the icing on the cake since the success of the TV show,’ he said, referring to the Channel 5 series Jersey and Guernsey, which took TV viewers straight to Sausmarez Manor and Robert’s cafe there.
