What are the responsibilities and job description for the Bartender- Travail position at Travail Kitchen and Amusements?
Travail Kitchen and Amusements is currently searching for a bartender to join our passionate and creative team in downtown Robbinsdale.
Ideal candidates are available Wednesday - Saturday from 2/3 pm to 11 pm/12 am. There will be some daytime prep shifts on Tuesdays as well.
At Travail, our service model is very different than your average restaurant. We do not have walk-ins or even table-side ordering for the most part. Our dining tickets are sold ahead of time via our online sales platform.
Guests may also order additional drinks (in addition to any pre-purchased drink flights), during their dining experience, but most of the drinks you'll be making are already pre-ordered and carefully incorporated into the day's prep schedule for creating batched cocktails.
