It is first and foremost the bartender’s job to get the customer a drink of his/her choice or be able to assist him in choosing from our extensive menu; this takes patience. Also, it is the bartender’s job to guide the customer throughout the menu, making suggestions whenever possible. Bartenders help “sell” Wild Wing Café, its food and “good time” atmosphere. Bartenders are responsible for the basics: ringing in orders correctly, delivering the food and drinks, providing the check, making correct change, inputting credit card charges and insuring the satisfaction of our guests.
Bartenders have legal obligations, which directly affect your livelihood. They are responsible for assuring that customers are of legal drinking age. They are charged with controlling their customer’s intake of alcohol in a professional and non-confrontational manner.
Bartenders may be called upon to handle TO GO food orders. They are also expected to perform a number of sidework tasks, including cleaning, replenishing coolers and stock, and some food prep. Some of these tasks are done weekly, others each shift. The work may be assigned by shift and or weekly. In addition to serving the customers seated at the bar, bartenders also provide alcoholic beverages for the dining room. This role, called Service Bartender, should be assigned to a proficient bartender who understands the demands of table service.
