The Team
Philippe
Mad Hatter & Owner. Also lead maracas in the secret La Jupe quartet. He has lived everywhere and has a story for any occasion. Sometimes known as Zul. German and Austrian beer are the way to this mans heart.
Siobhan
La Jefa. Loves wine almost as much as she loves her cats - Diego, Frankie & Tuco. The lady with a tattoo for every situation - she's lost count! Never turns down a pint or a shot of limoncello. Arrrrriba.
Aimée
L'artiste - our head bar. Does an amazing (mime) impression of The Gruffalo. The main mixologist who loves anything Italian! We often refer to her as the witch with all potions. Bourbon kinda woman.
Caity Jnr
Our Irish lass and the second Caitlin G to join the team. Other than setting the bar up for the day whilst singing along to Noah Kahan and making her way through the wine list, Caity is a florist and often creating beautiful arrangements for the bar and her etsy.
Full disclosure - she is not related to Sío.
Abi
Our very own Jessica Day! Indie band lover, paddle boarding queen and knows every tiktok sound under the sun. She is sure to keep you entertained with her random noises, gen z slang and dancing on shift, jubel peach beer and orange wine are her true loves!
Emily
An all rounder in every sense of the word. Musically talented on the piano, a qualified swimming coach, a paramedic and also knows her way around the wine menu. Joining us from Falkirk, Emily will make you feel very welcome in La Jupe and we are so happy she found her way to us! A member of the whisky + coke club.
Luana
Our very own kitchen-based Beyoncé. The vocal powerhouse, and our secret karaoke weapon when the chips are down. Makes straight up pitch perfect spicy nachos.
Theo
The shredder. Theo usually skates into work come rain or shine, power sliding his way down sinclair street like it's 1985. After he's calmed down, he'll knock you up a banging croque madame.
Jemma
The biggest smile in the bar. Jemma is like that ray of golden sunshine on a rainy day and we love it when she's on shift. You will too! A licensed life coach that can bring positivity to any hard day.
Caitz Snr
The glue that holds the kitchen together when the floor gets hectic! And up for nicest person in the bar award too...it's a grudge match against Jemma! Lived everywhere, from Wales to Germany.
Matt
Second maracas in the secret quartet. Normally found rocking out in the kitchen to anything metal! Some head of hair on him, it's where he keeps all the secret la jupe recipes.
