Bartender @ Henryâs (Charleston)
Looking for some passionate, creative, smart, and fun bartenders to help me run this new Lounge room at Henry's. The vibe is cozy, classy, and old-fashioned in a cafe-like setting. Counter-serve, $16/hr + tips, 8-hr shift average, no barback, and currently all solo shifts (exception of Fri & Sat night), so the majority of the money is going to you. Full-service bar (beer, wine, liquor, cocktails, draught). We also serve coffee & espresso drinks (lattes, cappuccinos, etc) so you also have to do some barista work! (super easy to learn, will train). In addition we have a pastry case (cakes, cookies, croissants) you'd have to be able to serve, which is also easy (put on gloves, heat them up, scoop onto a plate or box, and voila!). Lastly we do offer the Henry's restaurant menu, so you might take food orders, provide them with side plates and silverware, and the SA will bring the food to their table. You're essentially responsible for the entire room, bar and tables, which isn't too big, but that also includes bussing tables and wiping them down.
I want you to feel like this is your bar and your lounge, take care of it as such, and go the extra-mile for getting people in the door and taking care of them. The technical title for this role is "Lounge Operator", because that's essentially what you are - you run the show! But I promise it's not too much to handle, just be charismatic, quick, and thorough, and you'll go a long way. I'll be there regularly to support and guide. This is your stage and your spotlight! I'd also love to have someone who also brings a lot of creative ideas to the table - making cool signs, menu & drink ideas, decoration ideas, specials & events, and just some ideas for general improvements to get people in here, get the word out, and get them to keep coming back.
Anyway that's about all - we have fun in here, listen to our music, and have a very friendly and welcoming staff, from the servers, to bartenders, SA's, kitchen, and managers - some very pleasant and smart people, making this a place I've been able to call home for a year and a half now.
Hope to see you soon!
