George joined the Doherty family as an hourly employee in 2006 at Applebee’s Bethpage. After years of working as an hourly and shift supervisor he was promoted to MIT in 2017. Upon graduation and moving around to various stores, George settled into Applebee's Bellmore for an extended stay from 2017 to 2021. During his time at Bellmore, he championed training standards, shift execution and focusing on the guest experience. George is now back at Bethpage where he started his journey and has been working hard to make an impact there as we continue the uphill battle of Covid-19.

George’s determination, drive, intensity and energy are some of his best attributes. He is always working to do the right thing by his staff and the guests. George is always trying to move the business forward.

Please join us on congratulating George on his promotion to Senior Manager! We wish him continued success!
