Bartender

Bartender

A Bartender is a high-energy, guest-facing professional responsible for crafting beverages, maintaining the bar, and creating a welcoming atmosphere for guests. Beyond mixing drinks, a great bartender is part entertainer, part salesperson, and part hospitality expert — often becoming the face of the establishment.

Key Responsibilities

Greet guests at the bar promptly and create a warm, engaging atmosphere from the moment they sit down. Prepare and serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages accurately and efficiently including cocktails, wine, beer, and spirits. Maintain thorough knowledge of the full drink menu including classic cocktails, specialty drinks, and current seasonal offerings. Make recommendations based on guest preferences and upsell premium spirits and add-ons naturally. Monitor guest consumption and adhere strictly to responsible alcohol service guidelines. Check identification to verify legal drinking age without exception. Manage bar inventory, track usage, and communicate restocking needs to management. Keep the bar clean, organized, and visually appealing throughout the entire shift. Open and close bar tabs accurately and process payments through the POS system. Prepare garnishes, batched cocktails, syrups, and infusions during prep time before service. Collaborate with barbacks, servers, and kitchen staff to maintain seamless service. Handle guest complaints or difficult situations professionally and with composure. Assist with bar inventory counts, ordering, and receiving deliveries as directed.
