• Check and maintain bar equipment — swap kegs, clean taps, and troubleshoot minor issues.
• Keep the bar area spotless: wipe down surfaces, sweep, mop, empty trash, and clean storage areas.
• Learn cocktail recipes, beer/wine lists, and menu items to support service and jump in when needed.
• Help serve guests during peak hours — run drinks, bus tables, open tabs, and process payments.
• Interact with guests when appropriate — answer questions, solve minor issues, and bring the good vibes.
• Monitor stock and report low inventory or spills to assist with ordering and inventory tracking.
