Basic Bar Prep

The bar staff arrives early to organise the venue and bar to create prep and organise the floor and behind the bar or stock room. This includes washing, cutting fruit and preparing garnishes to streamline use.

Meal Presentation

The kitchen staff organises customers’ baskets before the waitstaff or sometimes can be helped to prep or clean some kitchen utensils. All staff including bar staff are expected to bring the final product to the customer. They have a working knowledge of the day’s meals and menus and understand each dish or side we serve.

Stock Kitchen and Storeroom

The bar staff works with management and the rest of the team to receive, stack, and properly store drinks in the bar and occasionally food in kitchens. They transfer alcohol and supplies to the bar as needed, understand the importance of stock rotation and shelf life.

Cleaning Duties

The bar staff is responsible for ensuring all areas of the kitchen, bar prep and alcohol storage areas are clean and properly sanitised. This includes washing utensils, glasses, bar equipment, shelving, floors, sanitising countertops and cutting boards and maintaining all areas to health code standards.

Bar Setup and Breakdown

If they are the first to arrive, the bar staff turns on the lights and sets up stations and washers, starts bar prep work and prepares the bar and customer areas for service. When they’re the last to leave, the bar staff puts garnishes and utensils away, cleans and mops the floors, and turns off all electrical items for a shutdown.
