This pirate is a ten year veteran on the good ship Sam's and heads the galley. If hard graft is measured in sweat, then Phil is surely the ultimate toiler on the sea.

Emma, Sam's wife and business partner, works 25 hours a day and never sleeps - some kind of wonderwoman we think!

AKA Ronnie, Timmy, Eddy and a select few know him as Georgie Best. Probably the best waiter in the world. Nearly 20 years at the top with Sam and boy, is he still rocking!

Younger brother of Matt and be sure he is everybody's buddy. Maturing fast under the strict guidance of the veterans.

This young pup is Ed's boy. Great work ethic, never complains, gets the job done. One of the best underwater technicians so far!

Sam is at the helm of the ship and makes sure his fellow pirates are always on hand to give maximum customer service to all our clients.

Big Red is our man on the floor, customer care is his forte and he proves that old is definitely gold!.

A winning smile, fine arts background and the ability to fit in the cupboard under the stairs. Top qualities for a top waitress..

Our very own Carribean Queen, nearly ten years as a waitress, a whole lot of hard work and running around Sam's, the result - buns of steel!.

Scott is one of the old school and cringes at the thought of being referred to as a veteran. Scott, the all round great guy..

Noah Sixton - the eldest and many would say quietest of the 3 Sixton youngsters. Noah is determined to follow a career in sport and excels at rugby, hence the photo!

This relative newcomer is a pure Brummy ladies man. Has injured every part of his body since arriving but always turns up and does his shift. Has been part of some record breaking kitchen services.

AKA 'The Tank' - seven years and counting for our very own American hero. Phil's perfect wing man in the kitchen.

'I am the burger man' - as ZZ Top once said. Pretty much a living legend, an essential cog in the machine that is Sam's. Always gives a lovely cuddle and has a plentiful supply of fudge and shortbread.

Sam with 2 of his children - Troy and Eden - following fast in their parents footsteps and already learning the ropes!

Freshly imported from Jamie Oliver's '15' restaurant. Basso is working hard to become a rock in Sam's kitchen.
