Job description

The League Kitchen & Tavernstands as an homage to the 1920’s Prohibition era. A photo of the Anti-Saloon League spans the walls along with pictures of history – old sports photos and historic photos of the founders’ families. The photos and mural enhance the motif of the vintage, speakeasy inspired eatery. The menu offers an eclectic mix of traditional and modern American cuisine, chef-inspired features, and weekly specials.

The tavern boasts a cocktail menu that takes guests on a stroll through history, featuring vintage cocktails like the Moscow Mule, served in authentic copper mugs, craft cocktails made with fresh ingredients, an extensive selection of fine spirits, personally selected wines, and a special “Stash” menu with the founders’ favorite libations.

We are looking for people who love the extortionary, not the ordinary.
