✨ Meet our Employee of the Month, Harleigh! ✨

If you’ve been around The Squirrel Cage, chances are you’ve seen Harleigh peek out from the kitchen behind the bar!

Harleigh is a senior at Willow River High School this year. She started at The Squirrel Cage 4 years ago as a dishwasher, and has worked her way up to a kitchen lead now, so we figured it was about time you got to know her a little better!

What is your favorite menu item?
The Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap

What do you like to do when you’re not working?
Hang out with family and be in the outdoors!

Who on the staff makes you laugh the most?
Garrett (one of our dishwashers)!!

What’s your biggest pet peeve at work? 😂
When the closers don’t clean around the cheese containers..

What song are you putting on on TouchTunes immediately?
Drift Away by Uncle Cracker

What’s your dream car?
A Ford Bronco

Dream Place to visit?
Dominican Republic

And when asked to describe The Squirrel Cage in three words, Harleigh chose supportive, bonded & caring… which pretty much sums up why we’re so happy to have her as part of our crew. 🥹❤️

A few words from the owners:
“We can’t wait to see what the future holds for Harleigh! We know she is going to be a boss at whatever she does in life and we are so grateful for her leadership and dedication to her job”.

Congrats, Harleigh, and thank you for everything you do! 🐿️
