We are seeking a versatile and experienced Bartender to join our collaborative group dedicated to crafting memorable guest experiences through exceptional food and beverage service. This hybrid role blends craft beverage preparation- including cocktails, coffee, and specialty drinks- with outstanding table and counter service. You’ll serve a wide range of beverages- from espresso and herbal teas to local wines and seasonal cocktails- while delivering warm, knowledgeable, and polished service. The ideal candidate has strong bartending skills, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is open to learning new techniques – barista or bartender - if not already experienced.

Guest Experience & Service

• Provide warm, friendly service to guests seated at the bar, counter, or nearby tables by greeting them with a smile and eye contact and ensuring they feel welcome throughout their visit.

• Guide guests through seasonal food and beverage offerings with confidence and enthusiasm.

• Maintain a clean, well-stocked, and organized station throughout the shift.

• Ensure all services are accurate, efficient, and delivered with care.

Bartending Duties

• Mix and serve cocktails, beer, wine, and specialty drinks to recipe and presentation standards.

• Educate guests on our beverage offerings, including local wines, craft beers, and non-alcoholic options.

• Recommend and explain rotating food and drink pairings.

• Set up and break down bar service stations, including prep of garnish and batched ingredients, and cleaning bar equipment and footprint.

• Monitor alcohol consumption and verify guest IDs for responsible service.

• Support inventory management and stock rotation.

Barista Duties

• Operate espresso machines and grinders with accuracy and care.

• Prepare espresso drinks, teas, and seasonal beverages with precision and presentation in mind.

• Create visually appealing drinks, including latte art.

• Rotate through bartending roles (e.g., espresso machine, service bar, and counter service)

• Monitor freshness of coffee, tea, and milk products.

• Maintain a clean and organized prep area to support freshness and reduce waste.

Operational Excellence

• Use POS for entering orders, opening/closing tabs, and processing payments.

• Follow all cash handling procedures, including cash drawer reconciliation

• Complete opening, closing, and side work checklists.

• Uphold health, safety, and cleanliness standards at all times.

• Support other FOH roles (e.g., bussing, hosting, dish) as needed and trained.

• Participate in seasonal menu tastings to enhance product knowledge and service quality.

Teamwork & Culture

• Communicate and collaborate with the FOH and BOH teams to ensure smooth service.

• Prefer a 2-year minimum of bartending experience, with strong cocktail preparation skills.

• Barista experience is a plus but not required—ideal candidates have general coffee or tea knowledge or a willingness to learn.

• Friendly, guest-focused communication skills.

• Ability to multitask and remain composed under pressure.

• Must be physically able to:

• Stand for long periods

• Bend, reach, and perform repetitive tasks

• Lift up to 50 lbs.
